IONIC Set: WWII Italian Tanks 1939-1943

The Ionic Smart Colors WWII Italian Armored Vehicles 1939-1943 set includes 12 acrylic paints specifically chosen for painting Italian Army vehicles during WWII.
The IONIC WWII Italian Armored Vehicles Set includes a carefully selected range of acrylic colors for painting vehicles of the Regio Esercito during World War II.?
The colors in this set represent the main camouflage tones applied to Italian vehicles across North Africa, the Balkans, the Eastern Front, and Italy. Historically, Italian AFVs entered the war painted either in overall green grey (initially dark or grigio-verde scuro, later lighter or grigio-verde chiaro) or in red-brown (rosso ruggine). These base colors were often supplemented with disruptive patches of green or red-brown.
Vehicles deployed to Africa were first repainted in the field using saharian khaki, before factory application of this color became standard from March 1941 onward. In 1943, more complex camouflage schemes appeared, including disruptive patterns of dark green grey or dark green and red-brown over a saharian khaki base, followed later that year by the distinctive amoeba camouflage, featuring red-brown and dark sand-yellow (giallo sabbia scuro) shapes over a dark green grey or dark green base.
The set also includes the tones needed to paint the tracks, including a neutral brown as a base and a dark metallic color, which is also useful for painting tools. The set also provides a dark black brown for chipping effects, a dark red for rust effects, and black for the rubber and various details. The different shades of brown can be used to paint stowage. Finally, the set is completed with a universal color for creating lighter tones and highlights, Vanilla.
Although all these colors can be used as they are to paint each element of the vehicle, they can also be mixed to create new shades or tones for generating volume by applying highlights and shadows.
