Susans' Spit

[Greebo]

Thanks to Lyric1 for finding me the info for this skin.

This is the Spitfire Mk VIII of Squadron Leader Ron Susans, CO of 79 Squadron RAAF while based in the South West Pacific in 45. Ever the showman Susans had his aircraft's top surfaces painted in RAAF black-green, a colour normally used on the RAAF's locally-built Beaufighters. The text on the fuel tank "A. V. B. the 1st" refers to Australian Victory Bonds. Susans had earlier scored two aerial victories flying P-40s with 3 Squadron in the Desert campaign and was later awarded the DFC.

Nice, that colour is difficult to quantify, or at least to me, may i ask what rgb did you use?

[Greebo]

The RGB I used for the black green is 36/42/32.

Here is a colour image of a Beau with the colour in question I believe.
