WW2 IJAAF Aircraft Colours is a set of eight acrylic paints essential for painting the authentic colours used by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force during World War Two. The new colours have been carefully researched for accuracy by the author of the famous “Aviation of Japan” blog. Included are six basic colours for painting the exterior surfaces and two standard interior colours. A profile guide is printed on the backside of the box. The paints are not only historically accurate and specially formulated with top quality components; they also have been designed taking into account the scale reduction effect*. The acrylic paints are ready to use straight from the bottle; simply shake and the paint is ready to go. Dilution is not necessary when airbrushing AK acrylic paints; however, when painting camouflage or fine lines, add a few drops of the AK specially formulated thinner AK712. Useful for all acrylic paints, the AK712 improves the performance of the paint and is vastly superior to most other available thinners, resulting in a greater degree of coverage when applied by brush. This set contains: AK02261 - #1 Hairyokushoku (Grey-Green) AK02262 - #3 Hairanshoku (Blue-Grey) AK02263 - #7 Ohryoku Nana Go Shoku (Olive Brown) AK02264 - #21 Midori Iro (Green) AK02265 - #27 Ao Midori Iro (Blue Green) AK02266 - #29 Ki Midori Iro (Yellow Green) AK02267 - #30 Karekusa Iro (Dry Grass Colour) AK02268 - #31 Cha Kasshoku (Tea Colour)

Adhesive to fix down all kinds of earth, gravel, small stones, sand, etc to your bases. This special adhesive, with an alcohol base, is much more effective than the traditional white glue. The white glue tends to leave a plastic finish over the surface giving an unreal aspect and also tends not to expand well through the material. But this new adhesive expands rapidly and is adsorbed by the stones and sand saving a lot of time when fixing down rubble for example. This product is easily cleaned using alcohol, can be applied using an airbrush or paint brush and the drying process can be accelerated with a hairdryer or any other type of heat source. Although it’s matt when it dries, on smooth surfaces it can leave a light satin mark, however, this can be removed with a matt varnish.
