Ro 37 yellow nose

Hello all

I just acquired the Classic Airframes Ro 37 kit, and am most tempted by the yellow nosed option shown in the box art. I see there's one of these in the gallery here, but would still like to know if any of you know whether this scheme is correct as shown. The box art indicates blotches of verde and bruno on top of giallo, whereas the instructions (and the build in the gallery) shows a background of verde and blotches of giallo with bruno inside. (fried eggs scheme).
Also: is the yellow covering the full cowl, or just the tip of the nose?
Is there any reference available?

Answers would be greatly appreciated.
Regards:

WOW!
Thanks a whole lot! :D
If I were to interpret that, I'd say there's not much giallo mimetico on that aircraft. Could it be as simple as verde mimetico with splotches of bruno and/or marrone mimetico? The ac in the background have much more pronounced splotches of what seems like giallo mimetico.
And a big thank you again.

No, the quality of the photo is not good, so I think it is correct to have a background in mimetic yellow with very large splotches of mimetic green and mimetic brown which let only small areas of visible yellow.
