colour creation,
development and
manufacturing process
AK Interactive distinguishes by achieving accuracy in its colours, this is our process for creating our paints.

1 creation
AK Interactive works and collaborates with
many people to achieve the most accurate colours. From historians, military, and specialists
join forces with the modelers to find the most
exact pattern for each colour. The specialist
along with the artist/modeler search and study
the right shade for each colour or the paint can
be extracted directly from the original object
and paint it on a board which will be delivered
to the AK headquarters and the factory.

2 colour development and adjustment


1 colour scan
Our colours arrive in either of two ways,
the colour comes already painted and applied on a board or it comes in a jar which
we then apply over a board. From the
board we read it with a spectrophotometer which gives us its coordinates and
colour curves.

AK INTERACTIVE / 4

2 calibrating the formula


With our cutting-edge colour formulation software,
which has been previously calibrated and adjusted
to our raw materials, we start working to achieve the
desired colour. We input the necessary parameters
such as coverage, which pigments to use, etc. This
way, the software gives us a formula to reproduce
the colour taking into account not only the overall
colour appearance, but its complete colour curve
and the different light effects such as daylight, incandescent, and fluorescent light.

3 matching accuracy
We produce the suggested formula from the software and apply it over a board to compare it with the
original pattern to see the slight differences. Usually, the software gives us a very close result to the
original, but not a perfect match. Once again, with
the spectrophotometer, we take the data of the new
colour and correct it with our software to adjust it to
the original pattern.

4 final test
The normal process is to make two corrections over
the first input. Once ready, we send it to the person
responsible to get the approval and get it ready for
production.

3 manufacturing
1 production
Once production starts, we make another test over
a board to check its coverage, quality and colour.
If for any reason there has been any change in the
parameters, we fix it until it is correct. We keep a
colour swatch of each colour manufactured.

2 quality
This colour development and manufacturing procedure is protected and audited under the ISO 9001
quality standard.

AK Interactive has always distinguished itself


with the quality of its products. Our new generation of acrylic paints is entirely developed in our
own laboratories which offers several advantages and innovations that will help you to paint
your models both quickly and smoothly, either
by brush or by airbrush. We are proud to say that
we have no less than three different paint formulas on the market today.

1 3 different formulas
Our basic line is especially designed for both airbrush and brush painting. These paints
dont clog in the tip of the airbrush and are easily cleaned or thinned with water (although
we highly recommend our own Acrylic thinner). We care about your health and insist that
our paints are non-toxic and dont produce harmful odors. They offer a light, smooth, satin

finish which is the ideal surface for further weathering. We have a wide range of specific
colours designed for the popular modulation technique, and also the correct colours
(RAL, FS, RLM) which are scaled for the best results. Other colours complete our ever
expanding catalogue, including the most popular current colours, for example colours ideally suited for chipping and producing rust effects. We also of course produce a range of
standard colours.

We also produce a different formula for our figure series colours which are specially designed for painting with a brush to produce a matte finish suitable for this genre. This
range is designed in co-operation with the best figure painters in Europe.

Finally, our last formula, is for our Air series. These paints have the perfect opacity and a
perfect satin finish. After research, the colours are altered for a scale reduction effect. The
colours for many countries in a variety of areas are researched by the most prestigious
historians such as Mr. Michael Ullmann and Mr. Nicholas Millman or Mr. Maciej Goralczyk.

2 OUR JARS
Distinguishing our acrylic colours is simple. The bottles
are our standard 17ml plastic bottles with a drip nozzle
for easy dispensing in to an airbrush cup. These bottles
are easy to store, ergonomic, and user-friendly. Only
our range of colours has the orange cap that guarantees you the best paints exclusively made by AK-Interactive. We now also have a black cap to distinguish Air
and Figure Series as well as white for our Naval series.
Our labels distinguish the paints for each line with the
code, the name, and the bar-code.

3 BRUSH AND AIRBRUSH


AK-Interactive believes that no modelers should have to buy large amount of paints. So we set a
goal for our developers to design a paint that can be used both for brush painting and airbrushing. In both cases, the opacity of the paint is excellent with a great ability to cover any surface.
Something that no other brand has legitimately achieved.
All of our paints are made up from a selection of top quality components with the result that they
only need to be shaken and they are ready to use. Theres no need to dilute the paints when you
decide to use your airbrush. When applied by brush they also have a greater degree of coverage.
In the case of our figure series, you can use them directly by brush and if you decide to load
these paints into your airbrush, you can easily dilute them by adding 40% of our acrylic thinner.

4 dilution
and applying
You can dilute our colours with tap water, although we recommend using our specific thinner for best
results.. Dont forget that you can use our colours (label with brush& airbrush) directly from the bottle
without dilution. If you want the best results for the painting camouflage or thin lines, you can add a few
drops of our specific thinner, useful for all types of acrylics. The AK-712 thinner improves the performance of the paint and is vastly superior when compared with most available thinners.

5 akrylic sets

We have separated our paint sets depending on our line of products. In the
future we will keep developing new lines with different characteristics to satisfy
the modelers needs.

effects sets
These colours are the most accurate and authentic that a modeler can find. With these sets you can
get different effects in your models or paint special parts. Each colour serves to produce a different
goal or effect, e.g. for rust , rubber , wood , brass even our popular colour for chipping. On the boxes
you can see examples of how they can be used and also to serve as an inspiration for your models.

Modulation set

Real colours set

Our modulation sets are specially designed for painting vehicles. They contain a paint specially diluted to create the necessary transparency to paint a
model using this technique. Each set contains 6 colours for a soft transition
of colour in 1/35 or larger scales. You can use fewer colours for smaller
scales. On the back of the box, you can find a small guide with step by
step photos which tell you the steps that are needed to achieve the desired
results. The AFV series also has in its line the real colours. You can obtain
these colours separately or in sets or blisters. These colours are our special
and exclusive range as they have been developed and researched with great
care. They are our best product for the most demanding modellers. The different colours included in these sets are RAL colours, Federal Standard,
etc. which are used by the different armed forces of the world in all areas
and also for civilian use. Use these paints with the guarantee that they have
been developed by experts. Many of them have a scale reduction factor to
realistically paint your models. The boxes contain on the back examples and

6 SCALE REDUCTION FACTOR


Only AK Interactive has managed to adapt authentic colours for models. For years, paint manufacturers have created colours without bearing this important factor in mind. A true colour reflects more
light the more surface it covers, resulting in a lighter colour, but the opposite happens when the area
covered is less.

Therefore, painting a full size tank and a model with the


same colour, gives an unpleasant effect, because the
small tank seems much darker, having less surface to
reflect light so that our eyes perceive the same colour
in a scaled tank as in a real one, we should use brighter
colours.

Example using Real

Tank and the Scale Model.

MODULATION

In this section we will take a brief look at what modulation is and what can do
for us, although there is a lot more information on how physical light works,
we have synthesized it to be easy and fast to understand for the modeler.

phase 1 understanding light


Modulation is a technique used to enhance and give volume to your model, to give as real appearance as the original object would have, all this using
the physical methods on how light works in the real world. Other techniques would be a fake as we have the best example, reality. With the aid of real
pictures and this short theory we can get our models to look amazing. For this tutorial we will apply this technique over a T-34 3D model obtained with
a physical based rendering engine showing how light would behave in the real world. To better explain how physical light works we split it into 2 ways
of understanding light: Indirect or Ambient Lighting and Direct Lighting:

indirect lighting

Emitter source: Sun


Skydome

The first thing to understand about light is that


there has to be an emitter source and that it
bounces endlessly with a decay inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the
source. Indirect light is the result of the light
bouncing everywhere, the best known of all indi-

This light bouncing causes an effect on
objects known as ambient occlusion.
Ambient occlusion means that objects
close to each other or from a corner angle cause ambient shadows, darkening
the area. The opposite effect happens
in the exposed or separated areas of

huge. Models approach reality once
this technique is applied.

Sun

As in indirect lighting or any kind of light emission, the first consequence are shadows, which depends on the kind of emitter
which produces different results. Sun shadows are sharper and
with an almost straight shadow line as it comes from far away.
Man-made lights are closer and therefore its shadows spread
sooner and results in softer shadows. This is important when
thinking about how to light your model. In the following examples we will show you the results on the 3D model.

Directional, infinite light

advanced fact. radiosity


Another thing to consider when painting, although it is a little more advanced, is radiosity, As light bounces everywhere it picks the colour where the
light ray hits and goes to the next place to impact the colour information by mixing the colour before impact and the one right after. This means if you
place a white cup on a red table, the bottom of the cup will be lit with red colour.

phase 2 colour modulation


The colour modulation in modelling appears as an alternative to the traditional way of painting. It suggests a three-dimensional representation,
something even more artistic if possible, and also tries to add dramatic
and chromatic richness to the finished model.
So, this is how it must be understood, regardless of the fact that it may
distance us from reality, and that it does not follow any canon or a defined illumination pattern. It is a three-dimensional pictorial suggestion
which is obtained by creating the sensation of lights and shadows only
with the employed colours.
We do not only modulate when we apply lights and shadows, created
from the same colour. We modulate also when we enhance a coloured
area by working through some velaturas or filters with other colours and
making our starting colour change. The resultant effect does not generate any volume, but it produces richness and instability on the surface.
Our entire acrylic paint range has been redeveloped and they are now
more resistant, therefore, they will endure the most aggressive weathering techniques. Also now, the colours can be blended just by merely

shaking the jars. In addition, many colours have been re-toned keeping
the scale factor. As a result, they will be closer to reality. The modulation
acrylic sets from AK Interactive have all the necessary tones to be applied
without having to mix any of these colours as well as to obtain the 3D
effect on our model with a clear and uniform finish. Every set includes, in
addition to the base tone and the finish tone for the extreme highlights,
two colours for the intermediate highlights and two more for the shadows.
We are going to see the modulation process of Russian Green, with the
modulation set AK553 4BO Russian Green. The process is the same and it
is independent of the base colour. Although masks are not required from
the moment we start applying the base tone, it is recommended to start
using them to help when gaining volume. They can be adhesive (masking
tape) or air masks (just a piece of paper held by our fingers) and we can
use them on the edges and hatches as well as on the piece we wish to
highlight, whether we use light or shadow.

modulation

It is essential to apply a good layer of primer to fix the paint properly.


For this, the completely assembled model has been airbrushed with
AK175 Grey Primer slightly diluted with AK712 Acrylic thinner.
To apply the primer it is convenient to dilute it at 50% with its specific
acrylic thinner. This dilution will not only allow the paint to flow more
easily, but it will also give us better control over the airbrush as well as
prevent us from ruining the surface. It is always best to apply several
layers to cover a surface rather than trying to do it with just one layer.

1-5 We will start applying the colour AK029 Russian 4BO Shadow in the
shadow areas, trying not to cover too much of the surface. The shadow
area has to be very located. We will try to airbrush the paint from the
bottom to the top.

AK INTERACTIVE / 14

6-10 We will next apply the colour AK030 Russian 4BO Dark Base in the
shadow areas as well. But, we will try to start from the area which was
painted with the previous colour and also spread the paint a bit more than
before. We will also airbrush it from below, but at a lesser angle.

11-15 Now, we will apply the vehicles base colour. For this, we will
airbrush the colour AK031 Russian 4BO Base. We will airbrush it from
both the bottom and the top, always avoiding to cover the previous
layers completely. It is convenient to start using masks to highlight
relieves.

16-20 Now the highlight process starts, for which we will use the colour
AK032 Russian 4BO Light Base. We will start airbrushing only from the
top to the bottom. We will use masks to avoid covering the previously
painted areas. The amplitude of the highlighted area will depend on the
characteristics of the model or the vehicle itself.

21-25 For the following highlight we will use the colour AK033 Russian 4BO Highlight. We will airbrush from the top, perpendicularly to
the surface on the horizontal areas of the vehicle, and at a stepper angle than before on its vertical areas. We will reduce the amplitude of
the airbrushed areas with this tone in order to generate the maximum
highlight point on the vertical and sloped planes. Of course, the use of
masks is essential to achieve these effects.

26-30 With the application of the last colour, AK034 Russian 4BO Shine, we
will obtain the extreme highlights. This colour, can be airbrushed as in the
previous step. It is convenient to apply it with a brush for the small details
as well as on the pieces that we want to highlight.

With this last step in the modulation process, by which we have obtained
a 3D effect, is really interesting on our vehicle. But this is not the end. We
have finished applying the colour base to our vehicle, but now, we have to
start the weathering process, which is really the process that will provide
our model with character.

varnishes
WHAT ARE THEY
Varnish is a dilution of one or more resinous substances in a liquid thinner.
The air volatilizes this liquid, which dries due to evaporation, leaving a film
over the surface where it has been applied.
Many kinds of varnishes exist depending on the thinner or resin used for
their fabrication. Actually AK Interactive in its line of acrylic paints has 4
types of varnishes with an aquatic base which offers us the following finishes: ultra-matt (AK183), matt (AK775), satin (AK776) and glossy (AK777). All
of them are the best quality.

why USE THEM


Their main task is to protect and preserve the surface where they are applied
from the effect of atmospheric agents, such as dust as well as to provide
the surface with a better resistance for the subsequent painting processes,
which can be very aggressive in nature.

VARNISHES

how TO USE
To obtain a smooth and uniform finish, it is convenient to apply the varnishes with an airbrush and to prepare the surface properly; that is, free of dust
and grease. In order to have a clean atmosphere, we can spray some water
on the air so the water will capture all the dust particles and drop them.
When we airbrush it properly, we actually guarantee a continuous layer,
without imperfections, with an adequate and uniform thickness.
Even though the special formula of the ultra matt varnish
allows this varnish to be applied with a brush, thus
obtaining a good result, we can also use a
brush to apply the other products and varnish small details.
The varnishes can be applied directly from the jar or slightly diluted
with AK712 Thinner. To obtain the
best results, it is better to apply
several layers instead of trying
to apply just one heavy coat,
since it may put our model at
risk of ruining the surface and
the desired result.

The Deutsche Afrika Korps vehicles wore four different RAL colours: 8000 and 7008 until
March of 1942 and RAL colours 8020 and 7008 after March of 1942. Additionally, the vehicles
were painted with a Panzer Grey RAL 7021 base that in many cases was exposed when the
paint camo was chipped and worn away. Finally, there is a discussion about the colour of
theTiger I deployed in Tunisia, because some sources identified them as Olive Drab. However,
recent research identified the paint as RAL 8020 but in a more greenish shade than usual. This
set presents 6 colours to apply directly to your model without the need to make complex paint
mixtures or hours of deep research about the colours used by the DAK. Additionally, these
new colours are suitably modified to compensate for the scale effect in models. These are

Weathering Plaster Base

ak 268

nitro thinner

A must have product for any modeler who wants to add volume to their mud
and soil mixtures whether its for a diorama or to be splashed on to their
vehicle. Mix the plaster in with any of our high quality Nature Effects line of
different types of mud, earth, dust and soil. The combinations are endless.
If your mixture is too thick you can dilute it with white spirit. If its too thin,
add more plaster. Either paint your mixture on to your diorama or load a paint
brush with your mixture and using your airbrush, blow short bursts of air at
the brush to recreate splatters.

Thanks to its strong formula, developed at AK-Interactive factory, our new


Nitro Thinner can be used both to dilute and clean your brushes and any other
painting tools. We recommend to use it as a thinner for our new clear colours,
and for diluted putty or use as a thinner for other nitro based paints

You cant beat the original. Our Heavy Chipping fluid is tried, true and consistent. An acrylic product that can effectively eliminate the need for hairspray which yields inconsistent
results due to different chemical make-ups, formulations and properties from one brand to another. One major advantage of choosing our chipping fluid instead of hairspray is
having the ability to alter the intensity of your chips by using Heavy Chipping for large chips and Worn Effects for the more subtle chips and scratches. Now tell me what can
of hairspray can do that? Hairspray gives you no control while AK Chipping Fluids can be applied by brush or airbrush.

The Gilera Mars was a combo motorbike-sidecar produced by

as a sidecar, was derived from a Gilera 500 LTE, but with cardan
transmission. It was used by the Italian Army on all fronts of World
