Hello Ramzey! ;)

Maybe you could ask on butch's WWII - Air War forums?
Theres bunch of those people who draw WW II aircraft profiles.
I guess you might get answer quite fast.

OK I resent the makings twice to make shure you got them, their are other scheams that you could use besides the one I sent you,I have two books on Japanese Makrings and they both say that the one I sent you was still in use at Rabaul during this time.

Ramzey this Plane is from the Zuikaku October 1942, the tail coding is indicative of the flet reorganaization following Midway.
