About product

US Army Uniforms Chocolate from Lifecolor

A dark brown with a warm, chocolate character belongs to American service uniforms as naturally as the olive drab. Lifecolor offers it in its water-based acrylic uniform line, that is among the colors built for textile, leather and the small kit of figures.

Where a dark brown is used

It does the most work on the jacket of an officer's service uniform, where it forms the dark counterpart of the light trousers. Alongside that it is a usable tone for leather equipment, pouches, boots and straps; on a figure these are small things, but it is exactly they that decide whether the kit looks like leather or like plastic painted brown.

On a small area the rule is that a dark shade needs light more than shadow. Brighten the edges of belts, the toes of boots and the bends of straps gently, or they will merge into a dark patch. Shading a dark brown further into depth, by contrast, makes no sense; the eye does not catch that difference at this scale.

Usage tips

  • Stir the paint thoroughly before work, as dark pigments settle to the bottom quickly.
  • Leave leather parts somewhat smoother than textile; leather reflects light differently from weave.
  • Lead the brightening along the edges, not over the area.
  • The same shade will also serve on wooden stocks and on earthy grime on boots.

Who the paint is for

For figure painters of American soldiers and officers, for builders of Second World War dioramas and for modelers who want leather accessories set apart from fabric.

Keep out of the reach of children, ventilate while working and close the bottle carefully.

FAQ

The dark jackets of service uniforms and the leather parts of kit, the equipment, pouches, boots and straps. It will also serve on wooden stocks.

Brighten the edges. The toes of boots, the edges of belts and the bends of straps need light more than another shadow, or the kit turns into a dark patch.

Yes, that is exactly what the line is built for. The contrast of a dark jacket and light trousers is typical of an officer's service uniform.
