And for an interesting comparison, here is the Ochre livery back in the 1980s on the Qantas Boeing 747. The only differences appear to be grey paint on
the bottom of the B738 fuselage, rather than the polished metal, and the B747 had the registration in the Ochre window cheat line below the Australian
flag, rather than above the line and further forward on the B738. The B747 also had polished metal engines rather than white on the B738.
