About product

The color

The sand yellow shade matches the German designation RLM 79. During the Second World War the Luftwaffe covered the upper surfaces of machines deployed in North Africa and the Mediterranean with it, where the green camouflage of Central Europe gave an aircraft away at first sight. On a model it is usually paired with a light blue shade on the undersurfaces, which looks cool against it and lifts the whole machine optically.

How to apply the paint

Stir the bottle thoroughly before use and during work, otherwise the settled pigment comes out unevenly. Apply the paint in several thin coats; only the last of them should cover fully. The thinner intended for this range and the thinning ratio are given by the manufacturer on the package, and follow it when cleaning the tools as well. Try the shade first on a piece of scrap material, as it looks different on a large surface than in the bottle.

Usage tips

In small scales it pays to lighten the shade slightly, because a great distance always fades a color in nature and a model without that looks dark. Desert machines also aged fast: upper surfaces bleached by the sun, boot wear at the wing root and fine dust in the panel lines do more for credibility than hitting the shade exactly. Before applying the decals, let the surface dry well and coat it with a gloss varnish, so that the decal does not go matte.

FAQ

For the upper surfaces of German aircraft deployed in North Africa and the Mediterranean, where sand yellow was used instead of the European green camouflage.

With the thinner intended for this range. The thinning ratio and the instructions for cleaning the tools are given by the manufacturer on the package.

A great distance fades a color in nature, and a model is small against the real machine. In small scales, therefore, lighten the shade slightly.

A light blue shade on the undersurfaces, as was commonly used on German machines. Base the particular combination on the scheme of the aircraft you have chosen.
