Paint set VALLEJO German/Allied WWII — acrylic model paints, 17 ml bottles, assortment of historic military colors

Set of 16 Model Air acrylic paints from Vallejo, curated for German and Allied World War II subjects. The set contains 17 ml (0.57 fl. oz.) dropper bottles, a dispenser cap for controlled flow, and a printed colour chart showing the included shades. Colours cover common WWII schemes for vehicles, aircraft and figures, including several greens, browns, greys, black, white and yellow.

Advantages

The paints are water-based acrylics formulated for airbrushing and hand painting on plastic models, resin and metal miniatures. Each 17 ml bottle has a precision dropper for accurate dosing and minimal waste. The included colour chart helps with fast identification of shades and planning of camouflage and weathering.

Suitable for

• Painting scale model vehicles and aircraft from World War II
• Figure painting and basing for dioramas
• Airbrushing and brushwork when diluted or used straight from the bottle

When it may not be suitable

This set is focused on historical WWII colours and may not include modern or non-military shades needed for other projects. For very large surfaces or production runs you may prefer larger-volume paints or dedicated spray cans.

Key specifications

• Contents: 16 bottles of Model Air acrylic paint
• Volume per bottle: 17 ml (0.57 fl. oz.)
• Dispenser type: dropper bottle with precision cap
• Finish: matte to satin depending on shade and dilution
• Compatibility: suitable for plastic, resin and metal models

How to use

Shake each bottle before use. For airbrushing, thin the acrylic paint with the manufacturer's recommended thinner or water to reach the desired viscosity; test on a scrap surface first. For brush painting, use straight or slightly thinned paint for smooth coverage. Apply several thin coats rather than one thick coat and allow adequate drying time between layers. Clean brushes and airbrush components after use with water or appropriate cleaner.

What to consider before purchase

• Set focuses on WWII German and Allied colours; check the included colour chart to ensure it contains the specific shades you need
• Volume per bottle is 17 ml — consider buying additional bottles for extensive projects
• Requires thinning for airbrush use; ensure you have the correct thinner or airbrush medium

Usage recommendations

For best results use the Model Air paints thinned for airbrushing on aircraft and vehicle surfaces; use straight or lightly thinned paint for figure details. Build up camouflage and weathering with multiple thin layers and consult the colour chart to match historical schemes accurately.
