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.

That famous picture of a Zero 22 that has all the green squiggles all over it is from Rabaul.
