Acrylic Paint Set - ATOM #WWII Regio Esercito Vehicles (4x 20ml)

ATOM Regio Esercito Vehicles - a paint set (4 x 20 ml)

A set of acrylic modeling paints from the ATOM line by AMMO of Mig Jimenez. The box states four bottles of 20 ml and the subject of vehicles of the Italian royal army of the Second World War. ATOM is a water-based paint, which the manufacturer formulated for brush as well as airbrush and which dries to a matte surface.

Use

• With a brush straight from the bottle; for an airbrush, thin it with the acrylic thinner of the same manufacturer to the consistency of milk.
• Its self-leveling behavior helps on the large smooth surfaces of a hull and of side plates.
• Once dry it takes washes, filters and pigments, so the usual method of dirtying follows on from it.
• Stir the bottle before every filling of the cup, as the pigment settles at the bottom.
• Do not thin it with lacquer or cellulose thinner; it takes only water and acrylic thinner.

Who it is for

For modelers of Italian ground vehicles of the Second World War, that is tanks, self-propelled guns and armored cars. Italian vehicles served in North Africa in sand shades and in Europe in darker greens, so the choice of base tone decides where the model is placed in time. Four bottles of 20 ml will do for several models in 1:72 and for one larger piece in 1:35, and they suit the accessories and figures of a scene too. The shades are not listed by name here; the description on the bottles and the period documentation for the vehicle you are building are what count.

These are paints, not a toy. Keep them out of the reach of children, and when spraying with an airbrush ventilate the room and protect your airways.
