Thank you, Sensei!   :)   It definitely looks better.  You have a good eye.

To answer Greebo, I have not yet found any color pictures with the blue paint, but the color profiles, for what they are worth, seem to be this shade.

Looking good V, :aok

Outstanding.  And thank you for the history.  I'm a history nut especially of the 8th Air Force.  History makes the aircraft imho.

Thanks, gents.   I credit Devil505 for talking me through the yellow.   It's a tough color to nail down.

Its a great looking skin Vraciu. Is there a colour photo of a similar 361st FG Mustang that shows the blue they used? The only similar colour in my palette is US Light Blue which I have set to RGB 54/88/115.

Yes.
