Postman Pat has just delivered my Saturday reading:
It's been out of print for several years but it gives you a number of different and interesting schemes if you can get hold of it.
Pink Spitfires anyone?

Run for your life - there are stupid people everywhere!
Lucky you, Steve.
As far as Saturday reading is concerned I am just finishing "The Star of Africa" by Heaton and Lewis. A gallant Spitfire's opponent.

Very cool! Time for you to get painting!
Pink was used in the desert as it seemed to blend in better. Some of the LRDG (SAS) vehicles were painted that color and it was suggested to paint ship that color. Mountbanton came up with the idea so a pink Spitfire is not out of the question.
21st Century Toys did a pink one in their old line of prepainted 144 scale warbirds from over a decade ago.
True about the desert. But the pink Spitfire that we included in the cards of the Flying Legend booster pack for Wings of War was from the European Front: armed recon, 140 Squadron, RAF, based in England. The color was chosen to blend into the clouds at dawn or dusk.
There's something about a pink Spitfire........bugger off to buy another model....were they only particular Mks?.....then stopit please.
