About product

From the forest to the desert

American ground equipment has gone through three color worlds over the last forty years. First the subdued forest scheme, then the three-tone combination used in Europe and finally the sand tones of the operations in the Middle East. This set holds all three together, and it adds the colors that suit details and interiors as well.

Eight tones and their roles

  • Dark green to FS 34079, the overall finish of the first tanks of the Abrams series
  • Green to FS 34094 as the base of the three-tone camouflage, and at the same time the overall finish of wheeled carriers
  • Brown to FS 30051 in the same combination
  • Black to FS 37030, the third element of the three-tone scheme
  • Washable white for a provisional winter finish over the basic scheme
  • A desert tone to FS 33446 as the first desert standard, prone to fading
  • Sand to FS 33531 from the more recent operations, good for lightening areas as well
  • Greenish to FS 24533 for the interiors of the crew compartments of armored personnel carriers

A note on use

The winter white was applied in a hurry on real vehicles and washed off in the rain, so on a model it pays to leave it thin and partly rubbed through. The three-tone scheme, in contrast, has soft transitions and was sprayed with a template, so it helps to draw the shape of the fields in advance. The interior greenish shade is deliberately light, so that there is something to see in the troop compartment.

There are only paints in the package; neither a model nor thinner is enclosed.

FAQ

Yes, the dark green shade to FS 34079 is listed as the overall finish of the first tanks of the Abrams series and a part of the Marine Corps equipment used it too.

It is a washable winter finish that was applied over the ordinary scheme and was not permanent. On a model it comes across convincingly when it stays thin and uneven.

The green shade to FS 34094 is listed as their overall finish. The light interior tone, though, does not apply to this type according to the data.

They correspond to two periods. The older tone is prone to fading, the newer one is used for lightening large areas as well.
