It's looking very good, Krzychu74.
Some years ago, a modeler designed and built a beautiful stick and tissue rubber-powered free-flight version of this airplane. The builder developed an innovative "thin crust" system for the fuselage. I saw it fly at Geneseo, New York, and it was a real beauty. I can't wait for your 1/50 version to be completed and available. Don

Attached is a scan of a Randolph colour chip set. I'm not certain of the date, but they still make all of these colours now. I have several more sets, but this was the easiest to scan and should be representative of the colours available at the time.
Mendenhall describes the SK-3 as 'Yellow cream with red trim', but Ash's photo shows almost white, but early colour photography was better known for it's vibrancy than subtle shades. If we believe Mendenhall: "Diana Cream" was available from all of the manufacturers of aircraft paints and dopes - Glidaire, Berryloid, Titanine - so that would be my guess for the base colour. If we compromise between photos and description, 'Ivory' might be a good choice "Red" leaves a lot of room for speculation. Either the Champion or Tennessee red would go well with the cream, but "ll leave that up to you.

What wonderful names aviation colors had in those days! Remember "Camoutint Pink"?
I do hope that Jupiter really was painted "Diana Cream" and "Tennessee Red"! Meanwhile, that undercarriage looks good -- and somewhat more complicated than I had remembered. You sure do good work, Krzychu74. Don

The Jupiter is looking real good. I'm looking forward to the final product. It will be a great addition to any aircraft collection.

Hello!
shrike: thank you very much for your help and explaining about colours! I think that "Diana Cream" and "Tennessee Red" will be good and even not like it sounds! Don Boose and dansls1: at one time people probably had more poetic souls, not what today, heartless numbers of paints... FS, RLM, RAL ect. Ashrunner: thank you! I did the inside of the cabin...
