Thanks Igor! Well, it is a '13' in the icon!

 

[Wurger]

Looking very nice. But still not sure about the dark blue-grey colour of the camo.

 

[Lucky13]

True Herr Professor! They're both from the same period, still the two decal manufacturers gives different colour RM's! Oh well, I just go with the instructions....

 

[Wurger]

So why haven't you repainted that with the correct colour?

 

[Lucky13]

You're telling me that Techmod f*cked up? I used the RLM02 and RLM71 like it says... Can be the lighting again, I'll take a pic straight from above tomorrow, if it's good weather, see if it's any difference...

I don't think so. Even the profile for the no.48014 - Messerschmitt Bf 109E-3 decal set shows the RLM02 as a colour of olive-greenish tonality.
Have you checked the FS number?

 

[Lucky13]

Yeah, I used the Vallejo charts my friend, to check FS, RLM and so on.... Same paint that I used for the D-9, K-4 and the other.....errrmmmm.....'190!

Mind you though, it's a new bottle, could it be a bit of a miss in the production?

 

[Wurger]

I can't draw the line at that.
