Hi, i'm currently building a 1/4 scale of an FW190F, i want to reproduce the NSGr 9 190's that where operating in northen italy (where i live), expectially the Fw 190 F-8/R1 E8+EH (WNr.584562) or the Fw 190 F-9 E8+MH WNr. 440323.
I'm searching for pic of those planes, i know that some of them are in the book "LO+ST" by Hideki Noro but the book is nearly impossible to find in europe
by now i've only found these two photos:

is someone also want to give me a hand trying to determine the colors i would really appreciate it also
 
I've only found one photo in the book "Ghost Bombers The Moonlight War of NSG.9" showing just the wrecked photo of EB✙MH. What is interesting about the photo is the inspection panel for the radio compartment, which has the lower left part of the balkenkreuz from a different aircraft as it has a white border. The book also has an article of Fw 190 colours

I'd have been very happy to have the photos from LO+ST when I wrote 'Air War Italy 1944–45' and 'Ghost Bombers' and they give a clear picture of the Werk Nummer 584562 on E8+EH plus the knowledge that it had a black outline-only Hakenkreuz on the fin. It has a black outline-only cross on the fuselage, white outline-only on the upper wing surface. Both it and E8+MH have the same style of unit markings. You'll need to draw your own conclusions about camouflage: Allied troops inspecting the wreck of E8+EH noted "grey upper and pale blue undersurfaces".
