Somewhere here recently someone mentioned Japanese carriers being painted green.i had never heard of this even after quite a bit of study years ago. Can someone elaborate and also what shade of green should I use if I go this route? |

If you do late war, 1944 on, carriers have camouflage decks. |

Dragon6. There are really nice examples in the link Mark (ohnomarchos above). Just scroll down a few entries. They are in color also. |

Wow! This is great stuff Mark. Much thanks, my question answered and then some! |

link This gentleman does 1/1800, 1/2400 and 1/3000 carrier deck decals. They show all the various nationalities. Also note that the paint company LifeColor makes accurate IJN, USN, RN and KM paint sets available from various vendors. |

Watch out for Mal Wright's forthcoming book on IJM camouflage, there is an extensive section on carriers – and their aircraft (I'm proof-reading at the moment) |

David,
Thought I would check back in to see if you might know when Mal's next book might be released? I have all of his other books and would love to get my hands on this next edition on naval camo. Thanks! |

I saw some of Mal's work before I left FB Naval Gaming group (just because it was Facebook). It was fantastic and now that I am not on FB I cannot go back to see if any of the samples were carrier hulls. |

Any green you like is fine surely. The shade used matters little compared to the lighting conditions you're modelling. |
| ww2navyguy | 08 Dec 2021 7:37 p.m. PST |
Is there any new news on when Mal's next Japanese WW2 camo book will be released? I thought I would check back and ask. |

Just checking back again to see if anyone has news on Mal Wright's new camouflage book of WW2 Japanese ships? Is there a targeted release date?
Thanks! |
