This aircraft is in natural metal with the beginnings of camouflage (RLM 81 Brown-violet) having been applied to the upper engine nacelles and the rudder.  The tail assembly has been primed (RLM 02 Grey).  The yellow gridwork is body filler used to smooth the body panel seams.

The photos at left show the plane abandoned at Innsbruck, Austria.
