hi guys

can someone tell me Vallejo Model AIR colours for ww2 german afv camo?

cheers luca

Are you looking for the three color ambush scheme? If so, then here are the colors:

71025 Tank Yellow (Dunkelgelb)

71041 Tank Brown

71096 Panzer Olive Green 1943

At least those are the three colors I use and they look pretty good. If you're looking for just the standard dark yellow, then 71025. The two tone green and yellow? 71025 and 71096.

Here's a 1/48 Tiger I with the two tone:

Hi

You could also use tank yellow, tank brown and tank green as well as the 1943 versions as well.

Whichever colours you choose, I suggest testing them out together on a sheet of plastic, cardboard, or a 'spare' model . . . I find the Vallejo air dunkelgelb shades look great on their own or next to brown shades, but altogether too green in a pattern with green.

To make the base coat of dark yellow less green, you can mix in their 027 or 028 shades to your 081 or 025. . . I happily use their 028 colour on top of their dunkelgelb primer 604 (which is darker than the name leads you to believe, more a lighter shade of grunbraun: I think they plan that primer to be used as your shadow colour, not base colour ~ you apply lighter shades on top of the pigmented primer, but the primer gets you in to the ballpark). Your mileage may vary . . .
