Can anyone recomend a cool paint scheme for a hellcat\wildcat? Did any examples exist that were NOT in the basic navy blue? Im just covering a Guillows hellcat R/C conversion and was hoping to find a paint job thats a little more visible(32' span) than the standard USN livery. Even a civilian postwar scheme might be cool....

Thanks BigJohn! I think i'm actually going to go with the fleet air arm paintjob in the bottom profile. I'm hoping those invasion stripes will help keep orientation on a smaller plane. And my name starts with E too
