Yes indeed now you mention, they must've had reasons for it though...

[JG52Uther]

It just looks...wrong.

I'm gonna hold my comments until i see it in the air, or at least from another angle. It does look bright though.

Looks fine to me. I think those guys do at least some research.

Anyway, after so long outside, exposed to the elements, the original colors are going to be severely altered. Still, you can see the yellow on the rudder, and that there is yellow behind the cross and covering a tiny bit of the rear canopy fairing.

I would venture to say that the plane was over-painted sometime in service, and that's why there's another yellow band further back.

If you're worried about the "brightness", don't. She will be dull and grungy in no time



They did fine on this one:

Yeah, their Emil is sweet, love the paint on that one. I'll just have to wait until they fly the 190 again, I'm glad they didn't go for another grey mottle scheme like the flugwerk ones.

these green brown camo looks like a typical JG54 one.
JG54 Fw190 had often very different colours than the 'typical' grey ones of other Luftwaffeunits !
