Paint set VALLEJO Vallejo Israeli Air Force (IAF) colors Post 1967 to Present, Model Air, bottle 17 ml, 8 colors

VALLEJO Israeli Air Force (IAF) colors Post 1967 to Present is a Model Air paint set containing eight acrylic colors in 17 ml dropper bottles designed for painting scale aircraft in Israeli post‑1967 desert and subsequent grey schemes. The set includes historically referenced shades such as USAF Brown, IAF Sand, IDF/IAF Green, IJA Light Grey Green, Light Blue and Dark Gull Gray for authentic camouflage and finish on model aircraft.

Advantages

The paints are water‑based acrylics formulated for airbrushing and fine detail work on plastic models. Their dropper bottles allow precise dispensing, and the Model Air range provides consistent pigment load and flow for thin, even coats suitable for realistic scale effects and weathering.

Suitable for

• Scale aircraft modelling of Israeli Air Force subjects from post‑1967 to modern schemes
• Airbrushing base coats, pre‑shading and fine camo pattern work
• Weathering and blending when mixed or thinned to desired opacity

When it may not be suitable

This set is focused on aircraft camouflage and finisher shades used by the IAF and does not include metallics, primers or specialty varnishes. If you need primers, metal finishes or a wider range of non‑IAF colors you will need to purchase additional Vallejo products.

Key specifications

• Type: Water‑based acrylic model paints (Model Air)
• Volume per bottle: 17 ml dropper bottle
• Number of colors: 8
• Suggested application: Airbrush or fine brush after appropriate thinning

How to use

Shake each bottle well before use. Thin Model Air paints with the manufacturer’s recommended thinner or water to achieve the correct viscosity for airbrushing. Apply in thin, controlled coats, allowing each layer to dry before adding further layers or weathering. For best adhesion, use a suitable primer on plastic models prior to applying these colors.

What to consider before purchase

• Contains IAF historical camouflage and finish shades but not primers or metallics
• Requires airbrush thinning for optimal application; brushes may require additional thinning
• Check compatibility with your existing primers and varnishes

Usage recommendations

Use these Model Air acrylics thinned for airbrushing to replicate Israeli post‑1967 desert and later grey schemes; test colors on scrap plastic and allow full drying between coats before weathering or applying clear coats.
