Pretty neat.
Shame there are a lot of A6/A7's...
-
I believe A6's are accepted as A5's and A7's as A8's. Don't know exactly how Skuzzy likes it.

Wasn't sure about the A7's.
I have seen the A6's on A5's though. :aok

A-7 was all but an A-8. Only a very small number were built and the production was switched to A-8s. It has the 13mm cowl bulges in the pictures, so you can tell it's a better match to put it on the A-8 we have in-game.
A-4, A-5, and A-6 were all very similar to each other, the A-6 being the only one that could carry MG151/20s outboard, but otherwise armor and performance and capabilities were the same.
So, A-7/A-8/A-9 would go on our in-game A-8. A-4/A-5/A-6 would go on our in-game A-5.

Not sure I like your colors. Sometimes you've pulled of very good effect with high contrast colors, but you're making RLM02 come off as barely any lighter than the blackgreen it borders. I think it's gone too far into the high-contrast zone. I think there's too much noise/streaking as well, which makes the colors even darker yet.
I know you said it's a WIP and it's subject to change, but looking at the screenshot that's my first impression.

Thanks for the clarification. On the colors - i used the same RLM that is on the default skin.

Still looks great. I loved the deep colors in the first pic. :salute

Made this a while back based on the swathes included in Luftwaffe Markings and Camouflage 1933-1945 which is like an authority on the subject.
RLM 74, 75, 76 was the combination of greys that was used most often from 41-44.
RLM 76 had a tendency to fade though
Also RLM 71 (or 70 I don't honestly remember) was used on the spinner, not black, and RLM 21 & 22 were glossier than other colors

The number font does not look authentic. Try e.g. DIN 1451.
