Some inspiration there for my lone P-38 for the Pacific Peter, cheers. Great paint jobs by everyone.
See you on the Dark Side......
I was thinking of starting in the Philippines, not quite as far back as you. I do have a nice book on the air war over Khalkin Gol, (book review 'HERE') hmmmm....maybe you will draw me into early China.
And speaking of the CBI theater, I'd love to play in a big game/campaign game on the Flying Tigers...how about it all those creative minds out there ???

They should now be up-to-date with the Unofficial Stats Committee files.

I got these from one of my Battle Colors books, unfortunately not with me at the moment. (see book reviews) From the top down they are close enough to what you have already done. But, my next set of four will have a slightly different scheme from a different unit. Those I will try to get pilot names for.
Ok Mike, from Battle Colors Vol V, my P-38 with the yellow spinners is from 8th Fighter Squadron, the red tipped one is from a later date of the 9th squadron. As with all attempts for correlation, I have 3 books all showing different schemes. Numbers are just what I had for decals. I wanted them done for a game so didn't dig deep to find historical numbers from the squadrons.
This is a P-38 Angiolillo painted as the captured one flown by Col. Tondi:

The .of the unofficial stats has the P-38 on a fighter base. Did I miss when it went to a HF base?
