Avia
B-534 IV. series, Germany - Luftwaffe, Winter 1943 |

This
winter camouflage looks like the previous one, but it isn't created manually
and it has full white background. This isn't a historical camouflage, real
planes didn't look like this, but on the model it looks quite interesting,
what do you think?
