Curious about the 02 going all the way down the fuselage sides.....?

Curious about the 02 going all the way down the fuselage sides.....?

The pic shows the demarcation line at the bottom rather ... the fuselage sides seem to be made darker with the RLM02 moving the line down..

Quite a few JG53 birds during this time period were camouflaged this way, especially III Gruppe with dark green Mottle or striping and some without. The first image shows the new camo without any mottle or striping.

More progress, added the RLM71 Mottle/Stripe pattern.
