About product

The Color of Field Equipment

Khaki is not a single shade but a whole group of brownish green tones that armies used on uniforms, tarpaulins, packs and field equipment. This particular tone is medium dark with a marked brown component, so it suits textiles rather than the metal surfaces of vehicles. On figures it works as a base over which you then work with lighter and darker shades.

Paint properties

Under the pigment stands a lacquer on an organic solvent, so it cannot be thinned with water. It can be thinned exclusively with the thinner from this range, with the dose adjusted according to how it behaves in the airbrush. The bottle holds ten milliliters and the cured surface is tough and takes further work.

Advice for work on textiles

  • On fabric the shade appears lighter than on metal, because the weave scatters the light
  • Bring out the folds with a darker wash and the raised places with dry brushing
  • Dust on the lower parts of a uniform lends a figure credibility
  • Stir the paint, because muted shades have a dense pigment

With figures it pays to lay the base shade down rather darker, because light is achieved more easily by adding than by taking away. The opposite procedure leads to the figure gradually bleaching out and losing contrast.

Where khaki comes into its own most

  • Uniforms and the personal gear of figures
  • Tarpaulins, covers and camouflage nets
  • Packs, haversacks and field equipment
  • Crates and transport containers of impregnated fabric

Muted shades easily merge into one surface when you use them on too many elements at once. It pays to alternate them with more pronounced tones so that a figure does not look uniform.
