A set of four acrylic shades for the interiors of German armored vehicles of the Second World War: light ivory, light gray and two shades of reddish brown.
Responsibility details are not available.
The crew of a German armored vehicle moved in a space lit by only a few weak bulbs. The ceilings, the sides of the fighting compartment and the inner walls of the turret therefore received a creamy white finish in RAL 1001 Elfenbein, which reflected the scattered light further on and made work at the sight and the passing of rounds easier. The light gray RAL 7009 belonged to technical assemblies and working positions where dirt would show at once on white.
Floors, ammunition stowage and the bottoms of hulls often stayed in the anti-corrosion coat alone. That is exactly what the two close but distinguishable tones RAL 8012 and RAL 8013 stand for. From 1943 the factories saved time and raw materials, and a number of vehicles left the hall with the interior left in the primer alone, so a model built from period photographs need not have a white interior at all.
It is a water-based acrylic dispersion in pots holding seventeen milliliters, applied with a brush and with an airbrush alike. For the airbrush it is thinned with water or with the maker's own thinner; with a brush it holds even unthinned. The shades have a matte surface, so washes and drybrushing sit on them well, and it is with those that rivets, welds and edges are brought out in a closed space.
