I have seen drawings with blue, green, and grey, but I cannot find which of those colours was actually used or if they all were common.

  1. Based on when it was built and where they were used, probably 2 greys (known by the Germans as RLM #74 Grüngrau, a dark grey; and RLM75 Grauviolett, a medium gray) over light grey-blue (RLM 76 Hellgrau).

    since the aircraft was initially designed as a carrier born plane, after cancelling the carrier building the aircraft were probably used by units close to the sea, to convoy patrolling, convoy protection etc. because of that i would expect themn to use the grey on grey colour scheme.

    Since the design derived from Emil model, they were produced in the times Germany still had a high rate of standardisaion, so the planes would have been painted similary /unlike the late models that were actually all originals/
