    Does anyone know where I can find a paint guide for Zuikaku or at least have and idea as to what paints to use for the base colorLate war). I use Vallejo paints.

    You mean correct hues for the camouflage pattern, or the pattern itself?

    If the former, I doubt you can have a historically-true hue for the colours, as all pictures we have of Zuikaku late war are black and white. The pattern itself is documented as you see in my attachment, but it is noted by the artist that at least part of the colours and pattern are based on conjecture.

    From a historical perspective, we simply don’t have the information…
