The Dak Uniforms Afrika Korps Figures Set by Ammo by MIG is designed specifically for historical modelers and figure painters looking to achieve authentic color representation on 1:35 scale German North Africa campaign figures. This 6-jar acrylic set provides the essential tones required to replicate the specific khaki and sand-colored variations worn by the DAK forces under Rommel's command, offering high pigment quality and ease of use, though it requires a basic understanding of layering techniques to get the most out of the specific shade transitions.

Yes, but you must thin them appropriately using an acrylic thinner to achieve the correct consistency for your airbrush needle.
It is highly recommended to use a matte primer to ensure the paint adheres correctly to the plastic or resin surface.
Yes, these are water-based acrylics and can be cleaned up easily with water.
These colors are specifically formulated for the DAK (Deutsches Afrikakorps) uniforms and may not be accurate for standard Wehrmacht continental uniforms.
Allow at least 15 to 30 minutes for the paint to dry to the touch, though curing fully may take longer depending on ambient humidity.
While you can mix them, it is always recommended to test on a spare piece of plastic first to ensure compatibility.
Add more acrylic thinner and a flow improver to the mixture to retard drying time.
Ensure the model was properly cleaned, degreased, and primed before painting.
Apply multiple thin coats instead of one thick coat, allowing each layer to dry completely between applications.
Before use, ensure the surface of the figure is cleaned of mold lines and primed with a high-quality acrylic primer to aid adhesion. Shake the bottles vigorously for at least 30 seconds to ensure the pigment and binder are properly mixed. If painting by hand, use a high-quality sable brush and a wet palette to maintain the paint's consistency. If using an airbrush, ensure your pressure is set between 15-20 PSI and thin the paint to a milk-like consistency. After finishing your project, clean your brushes or airbrush immediately using water or an acrylic cleaner to prevent residue buildup. Store the bottles in a cool, dark place with the caps tightly sealed to maintain their shelf life.
