Martin,
Is there a photograph of your Fok.477 posted here somewhere? I prefer the shade of red your DSA profile over my red.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette

  Rick,
Many thanks my old friend. My old Aurora Dr.I may indeed be in the ball park as far as the red goes.One thing I'm certain of is no more airbrushed Fokker Streaking! .... Thanks for the link too.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette

i would go with dsa info on this, back on the aerodrome he mentioned he had an original piece of fabric from 425/17 and had it somehow color scanned to break it down to its core, i remember distinctly him saying there was a considerable amount of lamp black tone color within the sample. so his artwork would be a good ref to go on as he had in hand a sample to make his profile from.
