Color Characteristics and Usage

JMSDF Dark Gray is a shade used by the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) – both on warships and contemporary helicopters as well as naval aviation aircraft. The paint perfectly replicates the authentic color used on warships from the second half of the 20th century to the present day – the Cold War period and modern times. It is suitable for building models in 1/700, 1/350, 1/72 scales and larger.

The high pigmentation provides intense color and a realistic appearance of your model. Due to its quick drying time and high abrasion resistance, the paint is especially recommended for painting parts exposed to heavy use and handling. Recommended both for ship and vessel modelers as well as diorama enthusiasts featuring Japanese Navy units.

• Realistic reproduction of Japanese Navy units’ color schemes
• Easy application with a brush or airbrush (Mr.Color thinners recommended)
