F4F-4 Finishing Suggestions

I'm trying to decide on how to finish my F4F-4. It's a 1/32" scale "Hobby Craft" plastic kit and I'm pretty much building straight up because it's been twenty years since my last model. SO far the kit's been a good one. I'm starting on the wings tonight, everything else is done and I'm getting fairly close to final assembly. So far the only complaint I would have is in the assembly on the fuselage. The instructions were a little vague plus the illustration in the instructions were obviously from a earlier version of this kit and did not match the actually parts I had in my hands but I survived this challenge.
Where can I find some other authantic color scheme options other than the kit suggests. I went on the Grumann websites but all I get is history and no color, at least the ones I went on....Any help would be appreciated.

You might try the aftermarket decal companies. A good place to start is www.eaglestrikeproductions.com.
