At a time when only the naked eye or optical telescopes were available for observation, conspicuous camouflage patterns played an important role in defence. They delayed detection by the enemy, distorted the shape of the tank, deceived the direction of movement and made targeting more difficult. During the Second World War, many nations introduced camouflage colours, although there were cases where this was not done due to the conditions of war or the need to speed up production. This guide introduces the painting and weathering techniques used to recreate the characteristic camouflage patterns of various countries during the Second World War. Learn how to master a variety of unique camouflage methods, including airbrushing, hand painting and masking, to take your model building skills to the next level.
