Gunze Sangyo CS-583 – Color Modulation Set German Grey

Gunze Sangyo CS-583 – Color Modulation Set German Grey is a professional set of model paints designed for modelers working with World War II military vehicles. This specialized kit contains four high-quality Mr.Color acrylic paints that allow for advanced color modulation of models in shades of German Grey—the original color used by the Wehrmacht from 1939 to 1943.

The set includes:

• C40 German Gray – an authentic base color for early WWII German armored vehicles
• CMC07 German Gray Highlight 1 – a lightener for subtle highlights and shadow effects
• CMC08 German Gray Highlight 2 – a lighter tone for achieving the effect of light reflections on model surfaces
• CMC09 German Gray Shadow – a darker shade for shading and enhancing fine details

These paints are based on high-quality Mr.Color acrylics, renowned for their color depth, excellent pigmentation, and outstanding adhesion to both plastic and modeling primers. Each bottle contains 18 ml, providing plenty for extended work and coverage of larger surfaces. The set is primarily dedicated to plastic models in popular scales such as 1/35 or 1/72, as these sizes most commonly represent German tanks and vehicles from 1939-1943 (Panzer III, Panzer IV, Sd.Kfz. 251 and others).

We recommend this set for intermediate and advanced modelers who want to achieve realistic tonal effects and detail depth on their models. This set works well with both brush and airbrush techniques, allowing for a variety of color modulation effects.
