Remember, this is a real plane and real paint, not a videogame "skin".

Even back then, planes came off the production line looking....NEW.

I'd say it looks gorgeous.

If the green was that colour, it would have been seen from space and recovered years ago.
Those colours were applied in the field by JG54 to hide their aircraft on the ground...What ever colour was used, that green is wrong.

That was not what I meant, of course they came rolling out with new bright paint, but to fit in his historical content, which is not a showmodel but a warbird, some weathering gives the plane immediately more history behind it, as if it was grasped out of the heat of combat, but that's just personal taste.
