    Darell,
    I collected the Zio Prudenzio paper models, and built a few. I was looking for other profiles to adapt the images to additional planes for building "flights" of camels.

    I found a few that corroborated Zio's planes for B and C, and only the below image for A Flt's planes:

    This acquired from: http://wp.scn.ru/en/ww1/f/117/9/0

    I don't know where they acquired the image, but there are more camels at that location, just more of the same as what I have (and probably what you already have).

    PS: the above site states that the source for all the A, B and C flight images (matching Zio's planes) was:

    Darell,
    More looking for personal reasons, now that your doing similar research...

    1/144 Decals - WWI Allied Aces - RAF Sopwith Camel - 10 RNAS


    Sheet YK-45-1 : 10 RNAS - C flight

    Aces include:
    B5664 – HJ Emery - wheel hub: all blue . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . No Record on The Aerodrome
    B5659 – FP Humphrey – wheel hub: ½ blue & ½ white . . . No Record on The Aerodrome
    B6358 – Flt/Cdr. LP Coombes - wheel hub: 2 blue circles . The Aerodrome.com - Coombes

    Sheet YK-45-2 : 10 RNAS - B flight

    Aces include:
    B6299 – F/Lt. NM. MacGregor – wheel hub: linked ellipses . The Aerodrome.com - MacGregor
    B3950 – F/Lt. JG Maxwell – wheel hub: one red circle . . . . . The Aerodrome.com - Maxwell
    B6211 – FSL. HB Maund – wheel hub: all white . . . . . . . . . The Aerodrome.com - Maund

    The decal sheets have the hubs, so if you are doing models, this might be better than painting your own?
