1/48th scale Monogram model
The sad little directions say light blue on bottom with Dark Green, Light Green, and brown on top.
Any suggestions regarding this build?

Hi there,
I thought it was a good kit, not too much on the filler required and went together nice. I did scrap the decals and paint job and went aftermarket. We used an RML 74/75/76 pattern and aeromaster decals. Lots of web stores out there to choose from. Good luck and show pictures.

Hi
recently got a few ref books with quite a few 109 profiles.
I'll check them out and try and post any that seem apt.
Cheers

Hi
here are three G's for consideration. All Russian front.
Top sides presumably were normal splinter pattern in the colours stated on the pics...
Hope its of some use.
If you can't read the text clearly let me know and I'll re-type them.
Cheers

Mike- as promised:
Many more in my gallery at https://armorama.kitmaker.net/photos/showgallery.php?cat=13497&ppuser=4328
Not all G's, but I left the captions w/the photos. Just find out if the unit pictured had G's assigned, & go for it!

Thanks for the help, gentlemen.
I already have it dark green as a base and am wondering how to do the camo.
Thanks for all the pretty pictures. I wonder why I'm not getting it. It's more natural for me to figure out tank camo schemes lately and the planes just perplex me.
