There is one coat of color (olive brown) applied in one coat on top of two coats of clear dope on top[ of the wings and tailplane and one coat on the fuselage over one coat of clear dope. On the under side of the wings and tailplane was on coat of sky blue over two coat of clear dope. On the bottom of the fuselage was one coat of sky blue over one coat of clear dope. All fabric surfaces were given one coat of varnish to water-proof the fabric.

Hi Dan-San,
I've often wondered, did the varnish darken the colors that it was applied over?
When they applied varnish over a pre-dyed linen, would it not make the linen's colors darker?
Would different varnishes effect the final product of the original fabric differently?
This makes me wonder if that could cause different surviving samples to differ, along with dye lots, care and aging, among other variables.
Thank you in advance, FOKKERJ
