Perhaps some clever sole will post the profile here so it can be seen against yours seen above.

I'm not that clever, but I'd like to know what went wrong when you tried to upload the image.

As for the color analysis, I think you should not take the slight differences seriously, they are basically portraying the same colors but by different artists in different publications. Although most of the 1942 Far Eastern photos show a temporate looking scheme, some give a sense of having a (lighter) desert scheme.

Weren't a number of the Far East Hurris on their way to the desert or even delivered from North Africa? Note, I might be completely off here, working from vague memory.
