Thanks mate . My main source is K A Merrick "Luftwaffe Camouflage & Markings 1933.1945", 2006. I think those Jagdwaffe books are mainly based on it.

I know that book you mean. But yes, it's mainly based on Merrick's new works although complete reworked Merrick's book (nothing to do with 70's well known books, similar title) didn't appear until 2006 2004 (my mistake previously) .

Anyway, in particular that Jagdwaffe on Spanish Civil War subject have some mistakes. Those aircraft supposed to be on "strange" patterns, like 62-63-65, and things like that, are simply false. They are based on very bad photographs, but even in them I can clearly identify standard Luftwaffe 70/71/65 1937 pattern, so the "strange colours" really are not so but artist imagination .

For skins on the SCW subject based on Merrick's and my own research you have all of them here.

Hello ManOWar.

Thanks for the info. I am not that specialized in the SCW, but I must admit that some pictures seem not to be in adequation with the illustrater rendering, but sometimes ,what it looks to me ,pretty close !. Ah............... if only we had a machine who could take  us (temporarly ) back to those times !.
Those black and white pictures are a real pain in the a.. !, but make the fortunes of many !.

As for your other skins, don't be afraid , I ve got them already !.

Thanks for your work and congratulations for your keenness of eye !.
