AK Interactive 3G Modulation German Panzer Grey
Product Info
AK Interactive 3G Modulation German Panzer Grey is an acrylic paint set designed to create realistic colour modulation on early-war German armoured vehicles finished in Panzer Grey. Produced by AK Interactive, this set provides a coordinated range of tones that allow painters to represent light, shadow, and surface variation without complex colour mixing. It is intended for modelers who want visually clear, historically grounded armour straight from the bottle.
Background
Panzer Grey was the standard finish for German armoured vehicles during the early years of World War II, particularly throughout the campaigns in Poland, France, and the early stages of Operation Barbarossa. While often depicted as a flat dark grey, real vehicles showed significant variation due to lighting, dust, wear, and weathering. Modulation techniques help bring that depth and realism to scale models.
What’s Included
This set includes a selection of AK Interactive 3G acrylic paints arranged in a modulation sequence, ranging from darker shadow tones to lighter highlight colours, all matched specifically to German Panzer Grey. All paints are supplied in dropper bottles for controlled and repeatable application.
Kit Contains:
- AK 11010 Medium Grey
- AK 11019 Graphite
- AK 11024 Ash Grey
- AK 11026 Tenebrous Grey
Components
AK Interactive 3G paints are water-based acrylics with a smooth matte finish, suitable for brush painting or airbrushing with minimal thinning. They are compatible with other acrylic paint ranges and work well across common scales, from 28mm gaming vehicles to larger scale armour kits. The paints are ready to use straight from the bottle.
Why This Product Is a Great Choice
This set is ideal for WWII modelers and wargamers focusing on early-war German armour who want depth and definition without relying entirely on heavy weathering. It simplifies the modulation process, improves consistency across vehicles, and helps Panzer Grey tanks read clearly and realistically on both the tabletop and display shelf.
