Six acrylic shades to the German wartime RLM standard, put together for aircraft deployed in the Mediterranean and in North Africa. It holds an early and a late desert color, a green for the mottling, the undersurface blue and two supplementary colors.
Responsibility details are not available.
When the Luftwaffe moved to North Africa in the spring of 1941, it had to solve quickly what to repaint machines prepared for the European climate with. A pair of desert shades came about which succeeded one another over time. The early pattern used a lighter sand yellow, and from roughly the turn of 1941 and 1942 a deeper sand brown replaced it. Over these, frontline units additionally sprayed irregular olive mottling, which broke up the uniform area. The undersurfaces and, on some machines, the sides of the fuselage as well stayed light blue. With that went a bold yellow on the engine cowlings, on the band around the fuselage, on the propeller spinner and on the vertical tail, which served as quick recognition marking in the theater.
This set of six covers the single-engine and twin-engine machines that served in the theater, that is the Bf 109 in the E, F and G versions, the heavy Bf 110, dive bombers and twin-engine bomber types. The range is water-thinned, so it can be worked with without extraction and the tools clean up easily.
A mottled field is sprayed freehand from close up. Anyone who is unsure can use a makeshift mask of modeling putty laid loosely on the surface.
