what about the pink spit? 

semp

Actually the pink Spits were low level PR birds.  There is a nice Spit I in that paint, and the Spit IX both done by Kev367 with a little history help from my book shelves.  Both retained their guns for the low level armed recce role.

The pink was a type of color meant to be the hardest to "lock onto" against the haze of the sky at distance. The blue was for carrier ferrying, and mostly associated with the Malta shipments of spitfires, if I remember.

Totally different purposes, but camoflague nonetheless.
