Hello Dan Kaplan! I will start the very fine model in a near future but I am a bit confused with the deck color. The models built on You Tube show it in wooden color when the illustrations on Gakken "Perfect guide to IJN carriers" shows them plain grey. Any advice will be welcome, TIA.

The Perfect Guide information is now outdated. Short version here: viewtopic.php?f=46&t=22885&start=0#p377409

The consensus in Japan is that the deck was wood planked.
