I was thinking (ouch!) a little more about the lozenge last evening. I thought I read somewhere that, instead of trying for color camoflage, the lozenge pattern actually attempts to distort the outline of the aircraft - distoring it's shape and direction. Maybe one of the Scale guys might clear that up for us. Either way I think H9 did a fairly faithful version of Berthold's DVII. Toyish, but I want one!
I think you are right about the shapes breaking up the outline. This was done with ships as well. I think we should all be thankfull that it is not RED!
