AK Interactive 3G British Caunter Scheme 1940–1941
Product Info
This AK Interactive 3G acrylic paint set is built for one very specific job and it does that job properly. Produced by AK Interactive, this set recreates the British Caunter camouflage scheme used in North Africa during 1940–1941. It’s designed for painters who want historically accurate desert armour finishes without mixing mystery colours or squinting at reference photos for hours.
Background / Lore
The Caunter Scheme was an angular, high-contrast camouflage pattern developed for British vehicles operating in the Western Desert early in World War II. Applied to tanks, armoured cars, and support vehicles, it was meant to break up vehicle outlines in harsh desert light. While short-lived, the scheme has become one of the most distinctive and recognisable British camouflage patterns of the war.
What’s Included
This set contains a carefully selected range of AK Interactive 3G acrylic paints formulated to match the authentic colours used in the British Caunter Scheme. Each paint comes in a dropper bottle, giving you precise control for consistent application and minimal waste.

About the Model / Components
AK Interactive 3G paints are water-based acrylics with a smooth, matte finish suitable for brush painting or airbrushing.

The paints are ready to use straight from the bottle, with no assembly or preparation required beyond shaking like you mean it.

This set is ideal for historical modelers and WWII wargamers who want to accurately depict early-war British desert vehicles without guesswork. It saves time, ensures colour accuracy, and delivers consistent results, whether you’re painting a single display tank or an entire armoured force.
