This set of four acrylic paints is essential for painting models of aircraft used in the Southeast Asia theatre of operations in the 1960s-1970s, by the units subordinated to the USAF Tactical Air Command, including the A-37 Dragonfly, F-4 Phantom II, F-100 Super Sabre, F-102 Delta Dagger, F-104 Starfighter, F-105 Thunderchief, F-111 Aardvark, RF-101 Voodoo, and many more. The colors included in this set are also useful for painting models of aircraft used by the American allies, such as the F-5E Tiger II. AKI 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*. AKI 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 AKI acrylic paints; however, when painting camouflage or fine lines, add a few drops of AKI's specially formulated thinner AKI712. Useful for all acrylic paints, the AKI712 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:
- AKI2101 FS 34079 Dark Green
- AKI2102 FS 34102 Medium Green
- AKI2103 FS 30219 Dark Tan
- AKI2104 FS 36622 Camouflage Grey
*A model aircraft reflects less light than an actual full size aircraft; this means the color applied to the model must be of a lighter shade to look the same as the full sized version. If the same color tones were applied to each, the model would appear darker as it reflects less light.
