Corsair needs new paint job

I'd love to see the ability to select different camo types in the hanger. Not only different camo types for the different theaters but also for the different countries that flew them. Example: the British and French also flew the F4U. Add there cammo's to the list. It would be kind of neat to see a French squad of F4U's flying. You would just have to pick it in the hanger like picking your payload. I would also like to see a modification of the nose art. Give us the ability to add a full paint job to the nose of the plane. I don't think the hole plane should be able to be painted. I really don't want to see a pink and purple B17. But many planes in WWII had more than just a small picture on the nose. I always liked the checker boards on the noses P-47's. One of the more dramatic examples was a P-47 named "TARHEEL HAL". It flew with the 366th squad, 358th group, USAAF, Toul, France, in 1944. Red and yellow banded engine cowl, clouded star field fore of the canopy and bright orange tail. Of course, as with the nose art, you would have to submit any new art to AH 1st. But even just having a variety of premade historical camo to choose from in the hanger would be cool.
