AK Interactive AK11712 CLEAR DOPED LINEN 3x17 ml – Acrylic Paint Set for World War I Aircraft

The AK Interactive AK11712 CLEAR DOPED LINEN 3x17 ml set is a specialized collection of three high-quality acrylic paints dedicated to aircraft modelers. Created to faithfully replicate linen-covered surfaces coated with dope, characteristic of airplanes from the World War I era and the interwar period, it enables you to achieve a realistic effect on wings, control surfaces, and other textile components of the construction.

• Scale: Universal – the set is designed for aircraft models in various scales, e.g. 1/32, 1/48, 1/72.
• User countries: The set was developed based on research of aircraft used by Austria-Hungary, Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy, and the United States.
• Historical period: World War I and the interwar period – commonly used on aircraft such as the Sopwith Camel, Albatros D.V, Fokker Dr.I, or SPAD S.XIII.

  • AK11031 Clear Doped Linen Version 2 (Buff)
  • AK11008 Bleached Linen (Grimy Grey)
• Properties: Paints are ready to use without thinning (especially for airbrushing); for brush painting or camouflage application, the use of AK11500 thinner is recommended, which affects the durability and coverage of the paint layer.
