Certainly hope that mine comes out that well!

 

Similarly I like the blue but is it 'artistic license' or based on fact.

 

There is no evidence to say it was red. We know there was a camo infill beforehand, but inspection of the b/w photos doesn't prove/disprove the red or blue theory. It's possible it was painted blue to tie in with the blue on other parts of the airframe. The real fact is.....no one knows.

Thanks, I was aware that there was some debate over whether or not the mouth was red or camo but have never seen mention off, nor considered blue.
