F-104 in SEA camo: 56-891

[kozlok]

So I'm doing my F-104 in SEA, number 56-891 with the Snoopy Sniper nose art.  I've been looking at photos of the Udorn aircraft, and it is clear that some of them have the port side of the nose in 34079, and some in 34102.  Looking at photos of 56-891, it sure seems like its entire nose is in the dark green.   

 

For reference, I'm using the photos here:  https://www.i-f-s.nl/udorn-aircraft-part-1/

 

The photos are kind of dark, and the difference between the two shades in the photos isn't what you could count on for definitive proof.  There is clearly some darker paint right around the Snoopy logo; I'm assuming it was newly applied dark green, which made it look a little darker than the surrounding area, but then again, the surrounding area may be medium green. 

 

My question is if anyone has much clearer photos of the A/C in question, especially both sides of the nose.

After seeing the Edwards flight test 104's with day-glow orange on them and now in SEA cammo

and the refueling probe on it really looks different! I do see a C-123 Provider in the background too!
