Schemes for Nakajima Franks based in Seoul, 1945

[SteveH]

Hi there,
Can anyone help: Looking for colour schemes of Franks based at Seoul just before the end of the war. I'm trying to complete a painting of Perdomo's ace-in-day effort, when he shot down four of them in a P.47N.

Thanks,

Steve

I'm not sure where these were based, but they might help:

Clave, thanks , you are a lifesaver. They were aircraft of the 22nd and 85th Sentais, deoicted in the profiles.

I will apply the finishing touches now. Here is the near-complete WIP, for anyone interested.

Cheers,

Steve

Indeed! Good stuff - I like the whole river/bridge/jungle thing, it's a good backdrop for the fighters... 8)

Thanks guys, I've subsequently 'hotted' up the flames and applied the markings to the Frank. It ships out tomorrow...
