The manufacturer of the highly-acclaimed LifeColor (acrylic) paint range, has just sent us details of their new sets.

The next two releases are for Figures:

CS14 - Italian uniforms of WWII.

The set consists of six colors:

UA413 - Khaki North Africa
UA414 - Tela Grigio Verde
UA415 - Tuta Carrista
UA416 - Verde Telo Mimetico
UA417 - Khaki Telo Mimetico
UA418 - Marrone Telo Mimetico


The set has been produced in cooperation with Model Victoria.

Finally, a useful set which ALL figure painters require:

CS13 - Flesh set

The set consists of six shades:

That flesh set looks like the cats pajamas for somebody just starting out on figures. That would take away a lot of the pain and frustration of trying to mix up all the varying shades, nice job Lifecolor!
