Title: Is this an accurate 262 camoflague? (link)

Anybody know if this 262 camo is accurate/historic?

I don't think we have a 262 like this yet. As far as I know the 262s didn't get into the grey/brown scheme much (that seems to be more of a Fw190 thing).

The image you have linked shows an Il2 'screenshot art' and is edited. As such the colors and contrasts are adjusted. It would be a bad decision to pick a skin to do based off another games skin, especially one that has been edited etc...

Yes, books are your friend. Too bad I don't have too many on WW2 planes.

Regardless, thank you for the clarification.
