Markings for Ki-115 1/48

COL A

The first phase of camouflage application

The Americans discovered a number of completed Ki-115s in a hangar of the Ota factory. The individual aircraft showed the process of camouflage painting. Firstly, the Japanese national insignia and a black anti-glare strip were sprayed onto the finished aircraft in natural metal color. Light gray paint was then applied to the wooden vertical tail surfaces, elevator, and canvas-covered ailerons.

COL B

The Second phase of camouflage application

The next step was to apply wide white Hinomaru borders to the fuselage and upper wing surfaces and part of the green camouflage paint around the white border.

COL C

The Third phase of camouflage application

The final phase of the camouflage was to spray the upper surfaces with dark green paint, while the lower surfaces were sprayed with light gray paint.
