Initial Assessment
This set comes with 6 colours in the now-familiar box, with front showing a tank and the colour swatches with both the authentic number and Lifecolor reference.
The set contains the following items:
- UA 243 Kenttaharmaa TY80001 Field Grey
- UA 244 Harmaa N:o 1 Grey
- UA 245 Sammaleenvihrea N:o 2 Moss Green
- UA 246 Hiekanruskea N:o 3 Sand Brown
- UA 247 Siniharmaa N:o 5 Blue Grey
- UA 248 4BO Venalainenvihrea Russian Green
Accuracy
The colours of the paints look good to my eye, but this is a little subjective to say the least; when you paint and weather your favourite tank all the colours change due to the weathering applied. So if it looks right then it is (as Bill would say).
Quality
I like this paint range, as with a little Lifecolor thinner added they spray really nicely and give a smooth finish with good colour and a quick drying time.
I find, as with all acrylics, the tip of the airbrush tends to clog but a paintbrush moistened with water applied every few minutes, depending on conditions and pressure, cleans it and allows you to continue. I do leave my colours to dry for 24 hours to be safe and it pays off, though others do not do this and still get good results.
Instructions
The instructions are, as usual, on the back of the box in 4 languages with some no nonsense advice.
Conclusion
If Finnish armour is your thing, get some and try it out. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed with the results.
Highly Recommended.
