Does anyone have any pics or descriptions of the correct paint scheme for a Me-208 (not 108 unless they had similar schemes) as used by the Germans during the war years? Its my understanding that some 200 of the tri gear 208's were used by the Germans during the war? The wing gear is very similar...
