WW2 Paint jobs....? A Shark? I thought they(P-40 squadron) were called 'the flying tigers'.
Anyway, I think the artwork is most Nexu-like. The Nexu at least has nice teeth and striping on the body.
Nexu? didn't that have four eyes (like me)? The scheme reminded me more of the large creature Anakin killed later in the season.
Shark-mouth nose art was popular with lots of squadrons on all sides during WWII, as well as today. The AVG (Flying Tigers) made it famous, because they were the only guys doing any real damage to the enemy those first few months after Pearl, not to mention the movie starring John Wayne.
