Early WW2 French Air Force paint set (6 Colours)

Standard colours of French aircraft in 1940

In December 1938 the French Air Ministry issued an instruction on camouflage of all land-based aircraft. Those already in service were painted during 1939, while the new ones received factory scheme. The colours applied could be different depending on the manufacturer - in general Light Blue Grey (Gris Blue Clair) was used on lower surfaces, with a mix of Dark Blue Grey (Gris Bleu Foncé), green (usually Kaki Français or Vert) and brown (usually Brun Fonce or Terre de Sienne) used on upper surfaces

The range of specially formulated lacquer based paints optimised for airbrushing. The product was developed to satisfy needs of all modellers – it is perfect for professional use (application of many semi-transparent layers, gradual building of colours / colour shading, application of very fine lines, etc.), but also very forgiving to beginners.

It has significantly limited odour compared to other similar products, hence is more suitable for home use.

All colours are highly pigmented and permanent.
