RLM (REICHS LUFTFAHRT MINISTERIUM)
 
If you are bit of a nerd for all things Luftwaffe like myself, I have listed below a basic guide to the Luftwaffe colours issued by the German Air Ministry, not all colours are listed but what I feel are the most popular, apologies in advance if some are not correct but they may help in your projects or maybe not. Where known I have also shown the relevant Humbrol paint codes, again apologies for anything that is shown incorrectly, please check for errors only human I'm afraid.

No apologies for being a bit of a Luftwaffe nerd but not to the exclusion of the RAF.
