Thanks for the help, sir. From browsing around you seem to be the definitive source for color information.
The fabric I'm not really worried about. As far as I know decals exist that will get me close enough. For the painted portions, however, your descriptions are somewhat vague (to me, anyway). Is there any way to show color chips that are close to the painted colors you mention, or at least include specific codes that I can use to find them (and what those codes mean)?
As I said, I know next to nothing about WWI lozenge camo. So when you say "dark violet", I really don't know what that is exactly!
I figure I'm probably going to have to hand-paint these sections anyway (ug), and something I can visually see to at least get close to would really help.
I'm assuming that the fabric on the rear fuselage carried up into the wings as well, yes? Also, was this used on the BOTTOM of the wings, too? Or was it that mythical "light color" mentioned in "The German Giants?"
Finally (to give a little back), here's a preview of the rough balsa fuselage core next to a Bf 109.
I've started the skinning process tonight. As soon as I get some more done, I start up a thread in the Models section.
Again, thank you for the help.
(Edit: Wait a moment. I think I may have found something at least close. I get the feeling that I'm still going to have to handpaint the fuselage, but at least now I think I have a visual reference of what colors I need to use.)
