I am not up on German colors. Can anyone help me with what color this aircraft would be while in German hands.
Thought this would be a fun build.

They probably weren't repainted, and remained in Olive Drab. If theyb were repainted, then my guess would be RLM 71 Dunkelgrun.

This plane was "captured' from a Dutch flying club and originally would have been in yellow with a black pin stripe (most likely). The RLM 71 is what I was looking for, thanks. I have read that it was touched up with neutral grey and O.D. that didn't match when taken over by the Americans. The photographes seem to show that very well.
