WWII German Tanks 1943 - 45

This 12-color set contains all the colors needed for a realistic representation of German tanks and vehicles from 1943 to 1945, including chassis and tools. From 1943, tanks had to be painted in Dark Yellow (officially RAL 7028) at the factory according to German regulations. Crews could then apply camouflage paint, mostly in Olive Green (RAL 6003) and a shade of brown, referred to as Red Brown or Brown in official documents. However, modelers often use the modern name and designation: Chocolate Brown (RAL 8017).

In addition to these authentic green and brown camouflage colors, the set includes two shades of Dark Yellow: a darker base tone, ideal for creating shadows, and a standard tone, representing this most iconic German tank color. It also contains two rust tones - light and dark - for replicating exhaust pipes and track rust, which can be further enhanced with a very dark brown tone for realistic chipping effects.
The set also includes important colors for painting tracks: a neutral brown base color and a dark metallic tone, which is also suitable for painting tools. A reddish brown is provided for wooden tool handles, and black for rubber parts and other details. The set is rounded off with "Bone", a versatile color for highlighting and lightening tones.
All colors can be used as is to paint individual vehicle parts or mixed to create custom shades - especially useful for adding volume through highlights and shadows.
