    first camo paint with MRP RLM76

    Decided not to do black 8 but white 21, the aircraft flown by Franz Wienhusen in autumn 1944.
    It´s often shown as Regensburg G-10 and Eduard has included this scheme in their Regensburg G-10 boxing, but an existing partial pic of this aircraft defenitely shows an Erla camo. It´s either a G-14 or G-14/AS, more liley a G-14. Barracuda Studios on their 1/72 G-14 sheet also has included this scheme. Gonna use the decals from the Eduard G-10 kit. It´s possibly that the G-10 in which Wienhusen was shot down on December 3rd 1944 had the same markings.
