take a look here (japanese site for a squadron called 404 NF):
http://www2.odn.ne.jp/~cdh88520/index2.html
scroll down to where you see TYPE FOUR and click on the text for the Ki-84 skins and ACES FIGHTERS for the zero skins. They look great, there are no unmarked skins included so the files are small. (hope I don't get their site slammed!)

Thanks for posting this. I think I just tripled my collection of Japanese aircraft skins. There are quite a few skins tucked away here and there on that site. It makes me wish I could read Japanese.

Some of the finest Japanese plane skins I've seen. As Flakwagen said, you gotta look around the site. Thank you for the headsup shinden!

GOOD FIND http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-very-happy.gif! Altavista can translate the page for you.

Lucky find...I was trying to find detailed data on the Ki-84 such as the degree of dehidral, angle of incidence and various speeds. I got frustrated and tried just Ki-84 on google and clicked on everything, I ran into this on the 22nd page!
If anyone knows where I can find such data, I'd appreciate it!

@shinden1974, thanks for the link m8 http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/25.gif
I really wonder who made those skins. Whoever he is, his works deserve a recognition here.
Hope he doesnt mind I post some of his screenshots. I'll remove them if he disagree.

Aero you should copy those to your photobucket acount and link from there, rather than direct linking.

Very nice skins indeed http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
However, you might notice that all the skins with the prefix '404_NF' are personalised online Squadron skins with the name of each member across the side of the skin.
You might want to be a bit cirumspect about using them online - I've seen the 404_Not Found squadron occasionally turn up on Hyperlobby servers.

Yes, that's obvious. Have no intention of using online JunkoIfurita, just showing off the artists work. I don't fly Japanese planes, I shoot'm down http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-wink.gif But doubt they'd make'm available if they cared....
