Squadron Colors RAF Dark Earth Acrylic Airbrush Paint (15ml Bottle)
Recreate authentic Royal Air Force camouflage with Squadron Colors RAF Dark Earth Acrylic Airbrush Paint (15ml Bottle). This premium airbrush-ready acrylic paint is accurately matched to the RAF Dark Earth color used in the Temperate Land Scheme on British aircraft from 1939, making it ideal for iconic subjects such as the Supermarine Spitfire, Hawker Hurricane, Bristol Blenheim, and Avro Lancaster.
Squadron Colors paints are formulated specifically for airbrush use and come ready to spray directly from the bottle. Each bottle contains a built-in flow control agent for smooth application, excellent atomization, and outstanding coverage. If additional thinning is desired, Squadron recommends using Scale Colors Thinner, water, isopropyl alcohol (IPA), or a combination of these. Do not use lacquer thinners or proprietary acrylic thinners from other brands, as they can negatively affect the paint.
Whether you're building a Battle of Britain fighter, a WWII RAF bomber, or any British aircraft finished in the Temperate Land Scheme, Squadron Colors RAF Dark Earth delivers historically accurate color and exceptional airbrushing performance.
