Color question ...

Its the red and yellow order correct? I have seen it reversed in the Windsock series and in other pictures. Also, the eyes and eyebrows, similar to Voss without the mustache, are they yellow on a red cowling?

The picture is from Dave Homewood Post, taken by: Gavin Conroy. See Jamo's thread " New Zealand Collection ."
Just re-posting for this question.




From " Knights of the Sky " sim. For comparison. They did not paint the tail correctly, just missed it or its a WIP.




Thanks.

Thank you again SL. I did not know he flew two differently marked aircraft. Thanks for the education.
