Bf109G-10 8./.JG52, Austria 1945

Didn't enter weathering yet, but the base colors are finished, using the G-10 layered templates. :)

 I had to make a guesswork of the 3-color camo - my guess was RLM83 + RLM82 + RLM63, but I'm not sure about the colors... I only had one really bad, low-resolution sideview profile of this bird, so if anyone has a better reference to this 109 and suggestions for correct colors please let me know.

 No pilot was mentioned, so I couldn't include the correct pilot with the plane - just used the Adi Galland pilot skin.

seems the g-10 and d9 share the same prop...

Oh, and a question..

 By 1945, did the Luftwaffe use the "white Ironcross without the black innards"(as used on the top of the wings) on the under surface of the wings, too?

 Since I only had a sideview profile, I had to totally guess the camo patterns, and just used the same style of wing markings as our default Wienhusen G-10 has.

Kewaessa,

German planes that were painted after mid-August  1944,  only had to paint the main angles of the "balkenkreuz". This consisted of black being used on the lighter shades (RLM 76 and RLM 21) and the white angles on dark shades of color - RLM 82,83,81..ect...

So the bottom of your 109 would have, in theory, just the black main angles on it. Not the inside or the outside trim
