The beauty of armour modelling is you can put everything together without worrying too much about subassemblies, unlike aircraft and naval subject. We began the process with airbrushing AK Interactive's own Rotbraun Red Brown primer over the entire vehicle. This is a fairly straightforward kit to put together (as Tamiya kits go), and with the lack of a turret made the painting process so much easier.įirst off a primer was needed.
We chose a Tamiya 1/35 Jagdpanzer IV, a recent release, as our test subject. With the issue of colour accuracy out to the way, the question remained - how easy are they to use? Well, there was only one way to find out. To begin, a line of 114 references (Standard, WWII, Modern, Clear and Varnishes) were developed perfectly suited for AFVs, and a similar line is made specifically for aircraft. We're expecting a complete line of naval and train modelling colours to follow shortly. To really get it right, they consulted with leading historical experts, with names like Starmer, Kiroff, Skulski and Zaloga! Numerous artifacts were scanned, analysed and professionally colour-matched to create the colours. In effect, they were basing the resulting colours of the entire range on the real thing, not merely on photographs (which fade) or museum repaints (which are wrong).
Extensive documentation backs up all their research, and its evident they did their homework. The development stage was quite hush-hush, but with the release of the Real Colors range of books, they revealed that a lot of research and development went into the process of extracting and sourcing actual colour swatches from real vehicles and paint sources. With all the buzz coming our way shortly about AK Interactive's new 3rd Generation acrylics (which is now in stock!), we thought this would be a good time to share our quick road test of their highly acclaimed line of REAL COLORS lacquers, which is considered by the industry as one of the best.Īccording to AK Interactive themselves, the new Real Colors paint range was designed with an improved chemical formula over other brands in the market and a paint of the highest quality.
