Hi folks,

Looking for an "out of the ordinary" paint scheme for an Me262. The one on the box is the standard nightfighter scheme (grey mottled on the fuselage, black on the underside and angular dark colours on wing topsides).

I'm looking for just an unusual one as I think the mottled grey seems to be the only option on most night fighters of this type. On an afterthought - anyone know if any pure black ones existed? Would look damn nice but I want something accurate....

Thanks in advance.

Whack Me 262 into yahoo images, gives a fair bit of variety.
This pic's black with white on the underside.

Howdy Stuart, Guys,

Ok, I havent looked at all the images on the link I am about to give you, but I remembered that the Australians had an Me262 in a museum so I looked them up....I "googled" them ( still amazed that google has become a verb). Anyway, here is the link with tons of photos and information about various Me262's :

I think you should be able to find something you like on this site, maybe not a black aircraft, but there are tons of pics like I said.

Have a good day,

Greg

Woo you guys rock! found a non-restored NachtJagdschwager on one of these websites that looks very much like it's all black, or maybe partially black-green or something. Something very sinister about a 262 in black!!!
Like the Bf110 as well...i feel i may have to pick one of these babies up very soon (SMACK ON THE WRIST) Nooooooo - not til I've finished what I have!!!!! hehehe!!

I'm sure you are aware of this site, it's the ME 262 Project that is building 5 reproduction airworthy ME 262's.

Lots of great reference photos on the site and great images of the builds in progress.
