ATOM 1944-45 German Standard Colors Set

ATOM Acrylic Colors Set for Brush and Airbrush 20ml - 4 jars

This set is specially designed to provide you with the essential colors to paint late WWII German vehicles.

Despite what many modelers had believed, the colors used by the Germany military were not the same throughout the war. Towards the end of the war, some colors were changed such as the famous Dunkelgelb or Dark Yellow. The version used was lighter in 1944, and even lighter in 1945. Another very common color applied during the last years of the war was the green shade Resedagrün, which was also subject to tonal variations.

This small set includes the four most common colors used between 1944 and 1945 and the oxide red primer color, allowing you to bring realism and accuracy to your models.  Included are the colors for such iconic vehicles as the Panther, Tiger I, Tiger II, and Panzer IV tanks; StuG III, StuG IV and Sturmtiger, self-propelled guns; Nashorn and Jagdpanzer IV tank destroyers; Sd.Kfz. 250, Sd.Kfz. 234 and Sd.Kfz. 251 half-tracks, among many others. Each tone has been carefully formulated to provide an accurate and detailed representation for your scale models.
