A dark green camouflage shade from the Acrysion range, an acrylic thinnable with water for spraying with a gun.
Responsibility details are not available.
Dark green finishes accompanied combat equipment throughout the twentieth century. They were worn by British aircraft in two-color camouflage, by Soviet and Japanese equipment, by postwar armored vehicles, mobile workshops and countless trucks. The shade also suits subjects outside the military: agricultural machines, locomotives, ship hulls and the rough elements of scenes where green is meant to look serious and unobtrusive.
Most often it is worked with as the second color of a two-color scheme. The transition between fields can be drawn hard over a mask, softly with a cut paper template held above the surface, or entirely freehand at low pressure. The choice is not merely aesthetic: real machines had different boundaries depending on whether the finish was applied at the factory or in haste at the unit.
Water does the thinning, the contents of the bottle have to be mixed before they are drawn out, and it is laid on by spraying in thin passes. Dark greens on a model easily swallow detail, so once dry it pays to bring the surface to life: lighten the middle of large areas with the same tone plus a drop of sand, and emphasize the edges and seams instead with a darker glaze. The result then holds together even under the layer of dust and mud that equipment in the field usually carried. Under decals it suits to give the place for a marking a gloss coat first, so that the edges of the film do not shine on a dark base. Rinse your tools as soon as you finish, while the paint is still fresh.
