We have a PE set planned for that kit, but it won't be available any time soon. Not sure whether anyone else has a set specifically for that kit. If not, probably the Gold Medal Models IJN Carrier set would be best.

If you want to stick with MM colors, then I would suggest you get the IJN Paint Chip set from Snyder & Short (you can order from Randy Short via http://www.shipcamouflage.com, or e-mail him at rshort@macnexus.org. That will allow you to mix your MM paints to match the IJN colors.

Cheers,
