Elevate your historical miniatures with the AK Interactive WWII French Uniform Colors Set, a curated collection of six 3rd Generation Acrylics specifically engineered for the French Army’s varied theater deployments. This set utilizes AK’s cutting-edge resin formula, offering unparalleled brushability and self-leveling properties that prevent the obscuring of fine details on 28mm to 1/35 scale figures. Whether you are replicating the early-war Great War aesthetic or the defiant forces of WWII, these paints provide the exact high-pigment, ultra-matte finish required for professional-tier historical modeling.
Designed for the discerning hobbyist, the 3GEN formula ensures that each "exact tone" remains consistent across both brush and airbrush applications. The high opacity of the Green Uniform Base and Ocher Khaki allows for rapid coverage over primers, while the specialized leather tones—Dark Brown and Leather Scuffs—provide the necessary richness for webbing, boots, and personal gear. This set is an essential technical solution for anyone painting Perry Miniatures or other high-fidelity historical figures.

TIP: Zenithal Highlighting
To make your French infantry "pop" on the tabletop, apply the Green Uniform Base (AK11427) as your primary coat, then apply a top-down mist or drybrush of Uniform Light (AK11436). This simulates natural sunlight and emphasizes the intricate folds in historical uniforms.
RECOMMENDATION: Dilution Ratio
For maximum control during detail work, thin these 3GEN paints with a 70:30 ratio (Paint to AK11500 Thinner). The resin strength in 3rd Gen acrylics allows for extreme thinning without the pigment breaking, perfect for smooth glazes and transitions.
