IJAF?

It has been awhile since I have posted on here or done a aircraft.So I put up my tank that I was thinking to work on and started a kit that is half way done.This was a kit I was doing on the road when I was layed over.So my question is in the Jappaniess Air Force during WWII,the Shiden top color was green but what was the bottom color.Was it grey or all metal.This question gos foe the Tony as well.Digger

It depends on the particular aircraft being built. Check out these wartime photos.

Photos of the “George” are in the Japanese Navy section, under the header “N1K.”

Photos of the “Tony” are in the Japanese Army section, under the header “Ki 61.”

There are some color museum pics of a “George” here: http://www.warbirdpix.com/champ11.htm#champn1k
Hope this helps.
