Hi Folks, I'm planning on building a P-47D "Little Bunny / Norma" assigned to the 57th FG in Corsica, late '44. From all I have read, this aircraft was previously flown by a Brazilian unit and apparently they painted all their Jugs RAF Dark Green over light grey When this aircraft was transferred to the USAF, the 57th FG used standard US Olive Drab to paint out some large markings on both sides of the middle fuselage. I've only found a few B&W pictures of the real thing. They are all heavily exposed and you can't really see any difference in tone, aside from this one:
So first off - does anyone have any better (ideally color) pictures of this aircraft? Secondly, can anyone confirm that Brazilian P-47's were painted RAF Dark Green? If so, any thoughts on what the lower color was? US Neutral Grey, NMF or an RAF color? Any info is greatly appreciated.
