A set of eleven acrylic paints for British equipment and the camouflage of the airborne Denison smock, intended for figure work.
Responsibility details are not available.
The British airborne smock was an exception among the camouflage garments of the Second World War. The pattern was not printed onto the cloth but laid on with a broad brush, so it differed from one piece to the next: the stripes of green and brown over a sand base had blurred edges and irregular spacing. That is exactly why it is a rewarding task for figure painters, where even the brush stroke of the original worker can be imitated.
The package holds eleven bottles intended for painting British and Allied equipment, uniforms and camouflaged surfaces of the Second World War period. The selection is put together so that both the base areas and their lightened and shadowed intermediate steps can be mixed from it.
The line is listed as a highly pigmented acrylic paint for figures. It covers in a thin coat, stands up to layering and glazing and dries to a matte surface on which pigments and oil touches sit well.
On a figure it works well to start with a sand base over the whole area and only then to lay the colored strokes on it with a flat brush drawn in one direction. The strokes should not be continuous; breaks and varying width are what make the result believable. At the end it helps to unify the whole area with a thin glaze, which softens the differences between the colors and brings them closer to the look of worn cloth. Trying the shades out on a test piece is recommended, because the hand application differed a great deal between period examples.
