Before ww2 all of air forces experimented with camo to some degree. There is a lot of photo evidence of it floating around but unfortunately most of it was destroyed over the years. French experiments are complete blank page to me and this D.501 looks like nice example of it.
Some of Polish experiments likely mimicked this as there are some photos of similar camo on P-11 fighters. B&W photos so colors are a guess work.
Great model Pericles.
