Good enough! It doesn't seem the same olive green of the picture, but could it work.

Here we have the Regia Aeronautica Colors Table

The white band behind the cockpit should be backwards, take the antenna as a reference.
Surely that green is wrong, it is not a green lizard. ?

Thanks for the input everyone, I'll work on a re-skin with a more appropriate olive green. Do you like the sandy effect, or would you prefer I make it just the base color?

Remember also the white cross on the rudder: it should be fix a bit. ?

Sorry that took so long, fixed her up a bit! V2.0 below

Sounds good. Colors are OK. Some details still need to be fixed.

- The cross on the rudder: the intersection must be higher, look at the Savoia's emblem (it must be a notch higher).

- The lower grey part in the tail must be far back: the curve must intersect the rudder.

- Number-markings should be move back a bit: half of 7 and all 0 are in the white band (stripe).

- The Number 2 appearance is different.

Thanks for the feedback hellrider!

 

I'm trying to do some more research on which is more appropriate. It looks like 370 and 371 Sq. were all over the place with the fuselage painting. As far as I can tell this specific aircraft 370-2 is indeed arranged how you mentioned. I'll likely make a combination of all 3, although Bigans made a really great point in another thread that often times paintings/artist renders for RA planes can be wildly inaccurate so it is a bit difficult to know which is correct to go by
