All done Vic. Printed off wing camo. I'll use this to make masks. Yes, the fuselage camo is non standard but I'm not creative enough to make up something.....or maybe just too lazy, i dunno. Don't let the print size deceive; I laid the model on top and its bang on. Still working on seams and will have to rescribe the top and bottom panel lines on the fuselage







 

Looking at the camo of the wing tops I would say it looks like being used for G-6 rather. The later one for the G-10 painted dark should be something like the one seen in the diagrams below rather. Ceratinly if it was the two tone camo on tops.



or


but the most probably

the source: the net.
 
I like "most probably", good for free handing. I'll post you something about the tail demarcations later on the left side. Profiles and photo don't seem to match. Still in PG and won't be home for about 3-4 hours. So we are a go for Tamiya XF-10 and NATO Green?

Ok, sprayed the underside of the wings Vallejo Metallic - White Aluminum - 77.706. When dry, I'll mask this and spray the rest of the underside and elevators RLM76 to match the bottom profile that Wojtek posted. Not gonna argue with Lynn Ritger and Anders Hjortsberg. Now topside, do I go with the first profile, 81/82 or the second profile, 82/83?

 
I agree the Ullman's colours look good. The MRP scanned chips in the net , show them in the way you may see below. The left one - RLM 82 , the right one - RLM83.

 
Agreed Andy. Going with Nato Green for 82. XF74 looks close enough to me for 83. Anyhoo. Looking all Bf109y. After this photo I put the windscreen on and as I suspected, the canopy is short-shot where the two meet. When the windscreen sets up, I'll run some PVA along the seam, good enough for government work


Tother side with White Aluminium on the wings

 
Yeah I think Nato Green is close and I think that's what Wayne uses but he paints less opaque than I do. Check out my White 11 build here where I made an 82/83 scheme: 1/48 Tamiya FW190D-9 White 11 of IV/JG51

For 83 I think I used 1: XF-58 Olive Green + 1: XF-67 NATO Green

The 82 was a mish-mash. I started with 4: XF-26 Deep Green + 4: XF-3 Yellow + 1: X-2 White but that turned out too limey so added 4: XF-67 NATO Green.
