Yes, early production schwerin built aircraft had the streaking until the later D. 3xx/18 series. then the lozenge was used over all from then on. The streaked green colour seems to have been a brighter hue. It seems to have cover the area from Testors Model Master dark green to medium green. Gunsight graphics has streaked decals that fit this subject specifically.
