[Skin] Hiryu 1942 ( Battle of Midway) paintscheme
Basically derusted ( I use the method in which the skin is grayscaled first to remove the rust, and then with color layers added on top with the opacity set between 60-20% respectively) and a recolor the hiryu's skin with IJN yokouska gray, yokouska gray is used since her last major port where she had service and refits are in Yokouska. And as for IJN ships, their base coat of gray is determined by the last major port where the ship had a refit or service at a given time period. Also added the Hinomaru for additional details. The skin depicts her final look at the Battle of Midway, where she was eventually sunk on the morning of June 5th 1942, after being scuttled and before that heavily damaged by USN dive bombers.
