Submitted by admin on Fri, 10/04/2013 - 23:31

The German army used several ordinances for camouflage on their vehicles during WWII. This set includes the most important colors in use from 1937 to 1944, and includes 6 colors designed to represent the initial Dunkelbraun and Dunkelgrey camo, the middle war version of Dunkelgelb and a green color used by Waffen SS and Polizei units on light and second line vehicles. Finally, the set also includes two different versions of Olivegrun, allowing the modeler represent the different paint conditions and faded effects for this color. For the first time we will be able to paint German tanks without complex mixes and hours of research. These paints have been designed in consideration of the Scale Reduction Effect (subtle lighter than actual color), to obtain the correct colors in our kits. These paints are designed to be effective for airbrush and brush and are water-soluble - avoiding strong smells and harmful solvents.

We suggest to have a look also at the nice tutorial they did about this product.

There are tons and tons of video-tutorials about scale models, dispersed on the Net. But only a few are truly worth to watch. We select the best and only the best video-tutorials: building, detailing, painting, weathering, dioramas and more.

We just finished to tag all the videos in our archives, and the first results is here: a selection of tutorials about the weathering in scale models: all what you need to know to give to your models the perfect dirty or dusty or rusty look!
