Help with a paint scheme

*This probably qualifies as somewhat off topic.

My father and I are in the process of building a little RV-4 sport plane and I thought it would be pretty cool to finish it in some type of warbird paint scheme.

This can be a scheme from any type of warbird (fighter, trainer, etc), whether it be an active wartime plane or a post-war racer, etc. My thoughts have so far ranged anywhere from a RNZAF Spitfire to Ben McKillen's post-war F2G racer.

Anyway, just for kicks why don't you all dig into the far reaches of your minds and help me come up with something interesting, and maybe a little flashy to boot!

For reference, the RV-4 seats two people in tandem, has a bubble canopy, and somewhat resembles a P-51 for the extremely disenfranchised warbird lovers of the world ;)

Have fun!
