Hi Doug,

Both of your samples above look very good. You might want to consider going back, and bringing your upper pattern to the same standards that you have recently established.

I believe I have only posted two samples with lower colors.

The one I mentioned on the previous page is probably the one you are thinking of. It is most like your lower pattern that Flugwerke was referring to. As I wrote in my previous post, the colors are a compromise between Hans' fabric and the AWM (Australian War Memorial) reproduction fabric.

I did post an old half upper, half lower pattern when you first asked about the lower pattern, but it has nothing to do with the AWM fabric, and the colors are not reliable. It was my best effort a couple of years ago, based on Mark Miller's 5 color page, then adapted to work with the 256 color palette for Red Baron 3D. I only posted it to help you place the colors in the pattern.

Thumbs up You nailed it!!!

Wow Doug, thats fantastic! I can't believe nobody else can get this right.
These are the truest colors I've seen to date. You would think the manufacturers could get it right. I can't wait to see the latest models finished in correct colors. These put the newest lozenge decals to shame! I guess when you want something done right.......
We've got to get Dan's input on a 4 color test!

Great Job!!!!!!
