Thanks for that info, Stefano. That 4-colour scheme would look quite different on a Fiat CR32 model...

Thanks for your replies, Tom and Vince. My only contention with the Bruno Mimetico proposal is that the nose colour appears to be somewhat darker than the brown area of the fuselage camo, whereas you'd expect them to be the same tone in the photograph. Admittedly different reflectivity of fabric and...

I'm currently building CA's Fiat CR 32 in the colours of Col. Grandinetti, Commander 4￾˚ Stormo. Both CA and the Chris Busbridge decal sheet have decals for this.

My question is one of colour. Looking at the photo on P.31 of the Ali D'Italia CR 32 book it's clear that the forward nose section is a darker colour, although this isn't shown on either set of painting instructions. To me it looks too dark to be either the brown or the green, and I'm almost tempted to paint it a dark metal colour. Does anyone have any thoughts/insights? The colour profile on the book's inside front cover shows it to be brown but as I'm a bit dubious about the accuracy of the rest of the camo scheme I'm also hesitant about the artist's rendition. Any comments would be appreciated.
