About product

The dark green shade of Polish helmets

A steel helmet never looks like fabric. It is smoother, darker and reflects light in narrow strips along the brim and the edge of the shell. The shade Polish Helmet Dark Green from Lifecolor is a water-based acrylic paint that holds this dark green separately so that a helmet does not merge with the uniform on a figure.

A difference of values makes the silhouette

A small figure is read mainly through its outline. When a helmet has the same value as the blouse, the head merges optically with the shoulders and the figure loses legibility. A dark green against a khaki uniform creates the difference by itself, and it is enough to add a gentle brightening of the upper crown, where the most light falls. On the brim and in the places where the helmet rubs against kit, the steel is rubbed through to bare metal, so small light points on the edges are exactly what creates the metallic impression. The inside of the helmet and the surface under the brim, by contrast, stay in deep shadow and it is good to leave them dark even when the figure is lit from above.

Where you will use the shade

  • Polish helmets and their covers
  • Darker metal items of kit
  • Fiberglass and metal accessories on a diorama
  • A ground under worn steel on edges
  • Dark areas of crates, boxes and accessories

Who the color is for

For figure painters who build Polish soldiers, and for modelers who are missing a dark green as a counterweight to the lighter uniform khakis.

Stir the contents of the package before use. Store it well closed at room temperature and out of the reach of children.
