Wool reflects light differently from canvas, and the shade US Army Uniforms Wool Olive Drab M 1943 from Lifecolor is aimed at exactly that, a water-based acrylic paint for figures.
Responsibility details are not available.
The woolen position of the American olive drab from the acrylic uniform line of the Italian maker Lifecolor. The line distinguishes fabrics by material, and this shade is intended for the woolen parts of kit, trousers, shirts, outer coats and blankets.
Woolen cloth has a denser and softer surface than canvas. Light does not reflect off it sharply but scatters, so the same uniform color looks somewhat deeper and warmer on it. On a figure this difference shows mainly where the two materials lie side by side: a canvas garment over woolen trousers, a woolen shirt under a canvas coat. When both have the same tone, the figure looks as though cast from one piece.
Working with the folds on wool means softer transitions. Break up the edges of the shadows more than on canvas and keep the highlights restrained; wool does not shine, so a sharp white accent on it reads false.
For figure painters who care about the difference between materials, for builders of winter dioramas with American infantry and for modelers who want the woolen and canvas parts of a uniform set apart in color.
Keep out of the reach of children, ventilate while working and close the container carefully after use.
