Desert Uniform Base from the AK 3rd Generation Figures range – the base colour of a desert uniform for figure painters. Matt acrylic.

Desert Uniform Base is a Figures range shade – a muted sand-khaki mixed for desert uniforms. Its undertone is cooler than a pure sand, so on a figure it does not read as beach sand.

Frequently asked questions

Why not just use a sand colour?
Sand shades are mixed for vehicles and soil, not for cloth. Desert Uniform Base is more muted and reads as textile on a uniform.

How do I thin it?
With water or an AK thinner. A few drops are enough for brush work; airbrushing needs more – AK thinners and cleaners are made for that. With acrylics, two thin coats always beat one thick one.

Is the finish really matt?
Yes, the 3rd Generation range dries matt. To protect the figure or even out the sheen, seal it with a matt varnish at the end.

The full range is in the AK 3rd Generation category.
