Discover all this and more with the new AK Interactive acrylic colors.
Based upon our own experience as modellers, we know that a good acrylic paint should be suitable for use by both brush and airbrush. This is why we have developed a high quality paint in exacting colors that work equally well when applied by either method. Be condent that you have chosen the highest caliber ammunition for realistic and accurate painting. 2013 AK INTERACTIVE / 4
Distinguishing new AK Interactive acrylic colors is simple. Our packaging is the standard 17-ml plastic so you can store them in your usual place. They have a special drip nozzle for dispensing paint, which will help you put it directly into the airbrush. And most importantly, only the colors with the orange cap are made entirely by AK Interactive and are not sold under any other brand. The orange cap guarantees you all the special qualities of our paints. In addition, the label gives information such as the name and the reference color and the barcode.
AK Interactive colors are distinguished in two categories. The orange label recommended for airbrush use with a special solution for the modulation technique, and the blue label, suitable for airbrush and brush interchangeably with a high degree of coverage. Note it is not necessary to dilute them for airbrush use. This labeling system will help you choose the most appropriate type of paint to use in each case.
The Blue label will be available from February 2013.
2013 AK INTERACTIVE / 5
AIRBRUSH OR BRUSH
In AK Interactive we believe the modeler should not have to buy twice the amount of paints, one type for brush and another for airbrush. For that reason, we have designed a new formula that lets you use your color with either airbrush or brush. In both cases the action of the paint is excellent with a great ability to cover any surface, not seen before with other acrylic colors. The blue label cans offer you this possibility.
You can dilute our colors with water or for best results, use our specic solutions. Do not forget you can use the colors directly without dilution. But also, if you want the best results for ne paint camouage or lines, you can add a few drops of our specic thinner for acrylic of all types AK-712, which improves performance and is vastly better.
SETS
There are three types of boxes of six colors. Each type of box is intended for a different purpose:
EFFECTS SETS
Use these sets to paint different effects on your models. Each color serves for different texture or effect, e.g. for rust, rubber, powder or our popular color for chips. This range is the blue label, which means you can use them interchangeably with airbrush or brush.
In these sets you will nd RAL, Federal Standard or RLM number references.
DOWNSCALING EFFECT
Only AK Interactive has managed to adapt authentic colors for models. For years, paint manufacturers have created colors without bearing this important factor in mind. A true color reects more light the more surface it covers, resulting in a lighter color, but the opposite happens when the area covered is less. Therefore painting a full size tank and a model with the same color, gives an unpleasant effect, because the small tank seems much darker, having less surface to reect light. So that our eyes perceive the same color in a scaled tank as in a real one, we should use brighter colors.
This process is not as simple as adding white to a dark color, but do not worry, because we have done it for you.

APPLICATIONS
At AK Interactive we want to guide you in the use of our colors. Many modellers think that a determined color can be used only for a single purpose or camouflage, but often a single color can be used for other purposes as well. In this detailed table you will find the name of our color and its reference number. But ,you will also notice that for some of the colors we have added the RAL or Federal Standard equivalence. Many times model kit instructions include these references, so now, all you need to do is to follow this table and take the needed color. Most importantly, many times a color can be used for many other purposes than the title on the label. For instance, some colors used during WWII are perfectly suited for use on modern armies such as those of the Middle East, Africa or Asia. But also, a color can used not only for a camouflage, but also for dust, earth and mud effects and for tools or details. Keep this catalogue on your workbench and whenever you or your friends discover new aplications for AK colors you can write notes in the empty spaces and complete the uses guide. Contact us at info@ ak-interactive.com and share with us your suggestions. We will include them in our next catalogue. And now enjoy our range.

Primers are a very important first step to insuring an attractive finish when painting plastic and metals kits This is why we have developed an acrylic primer that is easy to use, free of harsh chemicals and of course - strong and resistant. Apply an even coat of our primers and let dry and soon your model will be ready to receive the base color, washes, oils and everything you want. You can use the primer directly in your airbrush but you can dilute with tap water or our acrilic thinner. Try them!
