Description
A stimulating, thought-provoking new look at the methods of obtaining indisputably authentic color schemes for models of Luftwaffe aircraft and of applying that knowledge to improve them, whether for competition or for fun.
Produced in response to a frequently expressed need by modellers for more color photographs, camouflage patterns and stencilling information, this book features over 200 fascinating photographs from many of the world's best private collections, plus an eagerly awaited Luftwaffe color chart of 30 hand-mixed chips, some of whose most important colors have never been published before.

A Stimulating, Thought-Provoking New Look at Luftwaffe Aircraft Color Schemes offers modelers an in-depth guide to obtaining indisputably authentic color schemes for Luftwaffe aircraft and applying that knowledge to improve their models, whether for competition or personal enjoyment.
Produced in response to frequent requests from modelers for more color photographs, camouflage patterns, and stenciling information, this book features over 200 fascinating photographs from some of the world’s finest private collections. It also includes an eagerly awaited Luftwaffe color chart of 30 hand-mixed chips, showcasing several important colors that have never before been published.
The authors, all accomplished aeromodellers, tackle challenging questions such as the unexplained variations between “official” German camouflage colors and those actually applied to aircraft. They interpret photographic and primary evidence, evaluate previously published (and sometimes inaccurate) information, determine a specific aircraft’s camouflage pattern, achieve contest-winning realism, and validate the authenticity of their models.
Intended as a companion to the “parent” series, Luftwaffe Camouflage and Markings 1935–45 Volumes 1, 2 and 3, this publication details all the main Luftwaffe aircraft color schemes both verbally and through a practical quick-reference table, making it an indispensable resource for modelers and aviation historians alike.
