• Intended use: The set is dedicated to painting plastic model kits of German tanks and armored fighting vehicles (AFV) in various scales, such as 1/35, 1/48, or 1/72.
• Historical period: World War II. Winter camouflage was widely used by the German army during the Russian campaign (Eastern Front) in the years 1941-1945. Temporary white paint was used to conceal vehicles in snowy environments, such as during the siege of Stalingrad or the battles of Kursk and the Ardennes.
• Set contents:
  1. HTK-A101 Traffic White (RAL 9016) – Standard white, providing the effect of freshly applied winter camouflage.
  2. HTK-A164 Panzer Dunkelgrau Base – Since 1937, the typical base color for German vehicles, essential for realistically recreating layers and chipping of the base paint under the winter white coat.
  3. HTK-A153 MK-7 Temporary White – Special temporary paint, modeled after those used by German technical services, easy to remove in line with real-world application on the front.
  4. HTK-XP02 Paint Exfoliation Activator – Unique medium enabling the effect of flaking and worn paint, simulating wear and field conditions.
• Technology and material: Acrylic, water-based, completely odorless paints. The set does not contain resin or metal parts, only a specialized medium for controlled chipping.
• Advantages: Allows you to achieve both fresh and heavily weathered winter camouflage, adapted to any weather condition and model usage history. It is a unique 2-in-1 system, ideal for layered work.
• Recommended for: The product is intended for intermediate and advanced modelers, enthusiasts of historical dioramas, and weathering masters who value realism. It is suitable for tanks, half-tracks, or trucks of the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS alike.
• Difficulty level: 3 (Intermediate) – requires skill in working with advanced modeling techniques but offers significant visual impact potential.
