Hi Guys
Want to try my luck at it. bought a 5 kit deal off evil bay. but would any bady have the instruction painting guide in English?
The kits I was lucky to pick up were the
Tamayi IJN Shinsno, Juyno
Fujimi Zuikaku
Hasegawa, Akagi
Also just picked up these not sure about the instructions, as they haven't hit the door yet
1/700 Fujimi Japanese aircraft sets
Zuikaku carrier
Shokaku carrier
Ryujyo carrier
Taiho carrier
Tripiz Battle wagons (DML)
But any help would be appericated with them.
Have a good one
Bob

Instructions can be usually found on this site:
http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/

Shinano -http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10001804
Junyo -http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10001806
Zuikaku -http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10083110
Akagi -http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10000480
Akagi(pre-war)http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10070221

Ship overall gray color is based on which shipyard they were built in or last overhauled. Akagi 1941 for example would be Sasebo Gray.

For deck markings, I've found Futabasha's IJN Carrier complete guide (ISBN 4-575-47759-1) better than instruction guides in the kits. It is in Japanese, but you'd want it for the Computer Graphic images of the ships.
