This set includes the four colors that are indispensable for painting models of the U.S. aircraft finished in the so-called Euro I and Euro II (Lizard) camouflage schemes used in the 1980s, including the A-10 Thunderbolt II, F-4 Phantom II and some F-16 Falcons of the USAF, and A-7D Corsair II of the Air National Guard. Our paints are not only historically accurate and specially formulated with top quality components; they also have been designed taking into account the scale reduction effect*. Our acrylic paints are ready to use straight from the bottle; simply shake, and the paint is ready to go. Dilution is not necessary when airbrushing AK acrylic paints; however, when painting camouflage or fine lines, add a few drops of our specially formulated thinner AK712. Useful for all acrylic paints, the AK712 improves the performance of the paint and is vastly superior to most other available thinners, resulting in a greater degree of coverage when applied by brush.
Note: A model aircraft reflects less light than an actual full size aircraft; this means the color applied to the model must be of a lighter shade to look the same as the full sized version. If the same color tones were applied to each, the model would appear darker as it reflects less light.
