LifeColor paints are water based acrylic colours for modelling and hobby painting. They are excellent for both paint brushing and airbrushing onto plastic, resin, metal, vinyl, wood, cloth and ceramic.
This wide range of paints includes basic gloss and matt colours and mimetic, based on the Federal Standard 595b correspondence and each label shows the equivalent FS number.
The range offers many paints grouped into convenient sets for specific subjects, including tanks, aircraft, uniforms/figures, ships, railways and weathering.
Standard camouflage colors of the Royal Air Force planes camouflaged in the Day Fighter Scheme. This set includes Dark Green UA 547 and Grey UA 5018 for the upper surfaces, Medium Sea Grey UA 5011 for lower surfaces and Sky UA 550 are used to paint tail bands and propeller spinners.
