I've updated the Thai Ki-43 skin to match the photo of the "tiger stripe" aircraft. The close up tail shot Mitsu linked to also appears to be the same aircraft. I went for this colour combination as green makes more sense for the base colour on a jungle based aircraft. Dark green as the stripe colour didn't give enough contrast.

Just noticed I got the upper wing elephants upside down, I'll correct that.

Greebo,

the elephants on the wings, wouldn't their feet be facing aft? As I've never seen any photo's I dont know, but to me it looks kinda odd.

Great skin as usual though.
