Looking pretty neat that late  76, those mask will do nice finish for sure,  keep the great work mate 

cheers

This is what RLM 74 looks like, I have several  samples from 5 different 109/190's  and big chunk of flap  in 74 color  and all they match , so I know how it looks like and not like in your relic which looks way too green 

 

 

 

Also been measuring it with my Nix  color sensor  my relics

 

this is RLM 74

Here's the hatch, sporting both RLM74 (left of picture), RLM75 (right of picture) over duck green RLM76.

that is not  RLM 74 but a RLM 80, exactly like in the Australian 109

So here you make a rule out of your very limited knowledge

 

The color picture of the plane he is modelling is conclusive in any case

still you have not brought any  proof or evidence of what you claim as I did, only arrogant words!

the only thing I agree is that the picture is conclusive, it shows RLM 81 brown, RLM 82 green  and late "sky" 76 

 always a pleasure, cheers

The fact that you have never seen the late 76 "sky"  used combined with 74/75 means next to nothing : I have a cover panel with 74 painted in the factory on top of late 76 "sky"

 

yes, it means something, that it is not a very usually thing seen, just that, Mr. know it all  

and please post pictures of your claims!!

Peace

sure, I think we agree to disagree  

[Revell Messerschmitt Bf 109-G6 late]

-First tip, never trust a profile artist, I know by experience 

-The photo  it is NOT colorized, it is original slide 100% 

-Very important point is, Never seen the late 76 "sky"  used combined with 74/75 but  only with late 81/82/8...   (the cowling seems from another 109 donor) colors are similar to the australian 109  which is the only one with its original colors preserved

-RLM 74 didn't have that intense green tint as we see in the picture, I attach a picture of my  109 flap in 74,  all match to be late war combination camo colors not standards greys

 

-Here more comparison between 75 and 81 brown, the difference is clear and matches the reference photo of the subject

 

 

-the tail is solid 81 brown with snake green mottling 

-Model by Chris Wauchop,  I won't make any obvious comment about his expertise on the matter 

 

 

cheers

 

 

 

 

 

[Revell Messerschmitt Bf 109-G6 late]

This are 74/75/76  colors 

 

 

Here is  a comparison with some relics I have in those 74/75 colors from a Bf109G10  

 

here is  Fw190F8 stab fairing I have with brown late war color, also with late yellow 76 "Sky" 

 

 

[Revell Messerschmitt Bf 109-G6 late]

I personally think it is not rlm 74/75  but a late war brown and dark green call them  as you like 81/82/8...   plus you can see the yellowish late "sky" 76 not the bluish 76,  not standard grey camo!

cheers

Mike, those are great images, had no idea there was an unrestored late war 109 cockpit out there (aside from the Australian example).    Any other pics available to share?

WNF G10 at Planes of fame, unrestored cockpit, notice the wood  floor  and the asymmetrical bulky cannon cover, cheers

wow, that's looking pretty cool, keep pushing that awesome cockpit, cheers 

 

(190A-8  cockpit though)

Hi Troy, I would only counter that by saying there was more than one 66.

Later in the war 66 took on a slightly green tinge. Here's a G-10 unrestored.

You can see a difference between the cockpit color and the 66 on the canopy framing.

Remember too, it's all about the lighting.

 

that is the G10 at Planes of Fame, to me seems that  the top it has been infield repainted with RLM 70, not 66, it never had a green tint, you can see different shades of RLM 66, from very dark almost black, to more lighter and bluish shade at the end  of war, I have these samples from very dark 66 from 109F windshield  frame which was sandwiched and never saw light until last month, also a Ju88 cockpit part and a bluish compartment fragment  from the same 109F, and look at this other 109G  (not mine)  partial instrument panel untouched, so...

Hi Antonio I don't know if it is a desired effect but it seems to me that the central area of the wings on the right and left are greener than the external areas that have a decidedly brown dominant.
Maybe it's a photo effect but it looks like this on my monitor.

 Yes,  that was on intentionally, there was a lot of repaint done in those Razorbacks, here it is a real example from a P51B ammo wing panel, you can see the OD(brownish shade)  the invasion stripes (black and white) and the top layer of RAF Dark Green paint, so that's what is my aim  cheers

Hi Antonio.

to prevent white from showing on the edges below the blue I usually mask the outline of the mask 0.5mm or so on.

Your work is still impeccable, the masks give the model a finish that the decals, even if perfect, fail to give

thanks for the tip, helpful indeed! cheers

That really looks fantastic!  What colors did you use in the marbling and weathering of this?  Did you base the XF-62 with something or do any sandwich shading? 

 

thanks mate, I used Gunze H-304 over the tamiya base, I have applied some ink filter to make the OD more brownish, next is to paint full invasion stripes and cover them with RAF Dark green  but also still kinda translucent  and evident what's underneath  

thanks for watching , cheers

Thanks Kev, it's paint time, finally 

 

my first insignia paint with a mask, my fault didn't aligned it perfectly but it's ok lol, after you try  there's no point back to decals ever....

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cheers

couldn't resist to weather that OD

after some more research I think it is clear that detail should be gone
