Hi Shain!

Is it an Arado Ar 196 seaplane?

Hey Shain,
Here's a link to a page of an Arado Ar-196 kit.
http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal2/1501-1600/Gal1550_AR-196_Rawinski/gal1550.htm

The colors look pretty darn close to the box art.
The guy lists them as :
RLM 73 Grun and RLM 65 Helblau
Hope this helped.
