AFRIKA KORPS COLOURS SET
The Deutsche Afrika Korps vehicles wore 4 different
RAL colours: 8000 and 7008 until March of 1942; 8020 and 7008 after March of
1942. Additionally the vehicles were painted in a Panzer Grey 7021 paint base
that in many cases was exposed when the paint camo was chip and worn. Finally
there is a discussion about the colour of the Tiger I deployed in Tunisia,
because some sources identified them in Olive Drab. However, recent researches
identify the paint as RAL 8020 but in a more greenish shade than usual. This
set present the 6 colours to apply directly without need to make complex paint
mixtures or deep research about the colours used by DAK. Additionally, these
new colours are subtle modify to compensate the scale effect in models.
