A Wasp filmed later in June. It is a shame that all the photos I could find are from exactly the same angle! There is footage of the starboard side shot by the filmmakers as the Wasp came in to land at their camp, but it is in silhouette and no amount of image manipulation showed how the camouflage looked on this side. It seems clear to me that Endurance's Wasps were camouflaged by adding black areas to the standard bluegrey (and not a lighter grey as is often depicted). It is possible that the cabins were black all over during the Santa Fe attack and bluegrey patches were added later, but this is by no means certain. I'll plump for black/bluegrey camoflage, dark green AS.12 missiles on bluegrey launchers and bouancy aids in place.
