The Sept/Oct issue of Windsock has color photos of the RAF Museum D.VII being
covered with reproduced "authentic" dyed fabric. Its not surprising that the
lozenge shows through on the interior in a slightly faded form. How you
model this would depend on your dedication, your skill and your scale.
Lacking the first 2 and working only in 1/72, I plan on ignoring this fact
completely. Medium grey should be about right.
