Vallejo Model Color 70.953 Flat Yellow RLM04 is a matte acrylic model paint for the brush, the RLM 04 yellow of the tactical markings of the Luftwaffe, 17 ml.
Responsibility details are not available.
A matte yellow from the Model Color range of Vallejo. This is a model paint, not a kit, and the package contains one dropper bottle with a volume of 17 ml. Model Color is a water-thinnable acrylic, matte and heavily pigmented, intended primarily for brush application; for an airbrush it has to be thinned. The paints that go into an airbrush without thinning form a separate range, Model Air, so do not confuse the two.
This is not just any yellow. RLM 04 Gelb is a shade from the regulation palette of the German Reich Air Ministry, and in practice in the Second World War it served as the yellow of the tactical and quick identification markings of the Luftwaffe. It appeared on the tips of engine cowlings, the undersides of noses, bands around the fuselage, the tips and undersurfaces of wings, rudders and propeller spinners, as well as on tactical numbers and letters. You will know these elements most strikingly from the Eastern Front and from the Mediterranean, where they were to tell the machines apart from the enemy at first glance. The assignment of the shade to RLM 04 is stated by the manufacturer itself, so reach for this yellow when you build a German aircraft and want the markings correct for the period.
Yellow has weak covering power and shows through on dark camouflage (typically over gray-green upper surfaces). The proven method: first cover the area with white or light gray, let it dry and only then build the yellow up in thin coats. Mask only once it is perfectly dry, because fresh acrylic likes to come away with the tape.
For aircraft modelers who build Luftwaffe machines and want the right yellow for the identification elements, and for collectors of period shades who work with a brush.
A water-thinnable acrylic. Ensure ventilation when spraying and protect your airways. Keep out of the reach of children. Close the bottle properly after work.
