Would someone be able to...

...help me find pictures of PTO British Hellcats? I'm planning on doing a Hellcat and a Frank as my next two models, both in 1/32 scale. I plan on doing the Hellcat as either one shown below (numbers may not be exact), as the Corsair that I have came with the appropriate decals, but the only picture I can find of one are these two, and they aren't exactly the same, and the one isn't very good quality. They don't need to be colour either, as I know pretty much the colours, but I don't have the best look at the top or bottom.

I've found the profile only. The aircraft was in US camo - Glossy Sea Blue.
Source unknown.

Thanks Wurger. Your profile's better than mine!

What I really need though is a picture of the top. I think I know what it will look like, but I'd like to know for sure.

Catch, found a couple websites that might help. One has poor profiles but might give you an idea.

And thanks for the thought SE, but I did want it in FAA markings. Sorry if I wasn't clear!

[Catch22]

I will be. If I order it, it will take about 2 weeks to get here, so I have lots of time haha. Thanks man!

Hi Catch22,
Unfortunately Spit5 has found this pic only .It is quite small and it is very difficult to notice the upper wing surfaces.Still looking for others betters.
