Beautiful paint and weathering apps! I am embarking on just such a project myself with a second hand F/O KT i picked up on flea bay.
Would you be so kind as to tell me the colours of the AK interactive paints you used? I also like the Vallejo acrylics. You seem to have got the colours just right.

Thanks,

Hi Stu,

Thanks very much for looking in and posting your comments.

The Paints and weathering items used for the camouflage finish are as follows:
AK Interactive German Dunkelgelb modulation set AK552
AK Interactive German Camouflage modulation set AK167
502 Abteilung German Armour tones oil set ABT300
AK Interactive Streaking effects set AK062
AK Interactive enamel wash for dark yellow AK300
Mig (Sin industries) filters brown P241
Mig (Sin industries) filters tan P242

All of the above were used in different areas to create the different effects.
good luck with your project, I hope to see some progress photo's soon.

Best Regards

Keith.
