Hi all, a friend is making researches about the colors of paints utilized by Republican planes, SB in particular, during the Civil War, and on colors utilized by Nationalists to repaint the captured planes after the war. He is starting to work on profiles of SB. There was some interesting discussion there, some years ago: http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/board/index.php?topic=1019.0 I have some photos of the museum of Madrid too, but they were repainted after the war and the authenticity is not guaranteed. In general, we have seen samples two shades of green (dark and light olive) utilized on SB over a light grey background. Besides it is generally accepted that sand and brown were utilized as camo colors, and that often undersurfaces were light blue (something as Humbrol 65). I would like to know if there is any further information available before starting the work on profiles. Regards Massimo
