Hi Maarten - good question. I think I have chosen the photo made from the carrier as an argument.
I think that the darker appearance of the lighter colour at the bow - which is not visible on all photos - is an artifact caused by the angle of the hull sides (or there was a change made).
Raven in Warship Perspectives has a different opinion - he drawn the lighter colour at the bow in the same colour as the colour near the main mast and the forward field darker. But Raven's port side pattern looks very different compared to the photos I have found (no similarities at all). Therefore, I have decided to ignore Raven and do my own interpretation based on the photos.
Raven wrote that the design was modified in October 1943 - which could be an explanation for the differences, but it could be also a different interpretation.
Wright shows two different patters for June and December 1943 - differing regarding the two darker colours (MS 3 and B30 on B 55 on the first, 507A and B15 on B 55 on the second). That would fit to the lower contrast on some photos. I know that there are many who criticize Wright and I do not agree with regarding the December 1943 pattern - again, as in Raven, the pattern on the port side is very different from the photos which I have found.
There is also part of the port side pattern, which was unclear to me. There could be an additional darker field midships near the waterline extending from the darker field behind, but on the photos this part was obscured by waves.
Caused by the new findings by Sovereign Hobbies, I am anyway completely confused regarding British colours
