DAK Green (AK17073) from the QuickGen Military Range is designed for hobbyists who want a convincing military finish with confidence and ease. This deep green tone is inspired by classic field colors and works beautifully as a base for vehicles, uniforms and equipment. Its reliable handling helps you bring out detail quickly while keeping your workflow smooth.
The QuickGen Military Range is known for its high pigment load and consistent opacity. Thanks to the high coverage formula, DAK Green grips the surface immediately and often requires fewer layers to reach a solid result. This makes it especially effective for large model surfaces such as tanks, armored cars and artillery pieces, but also for 28–35mm uniforms and gear. Many painters appreciate how the color thins well for shading or airbrushing while maintaining strong saturation.
The water-based formula is low-odor and engineered for controlled flow, ensuring that fine details remain sharp. You can apply it with careful brushwork or quickly cover large areas when batch-painting multiple miniatures. Reviews frequently highlight how the Military Range performs reliably for fast tabletop projects.
DAK Green is part of the 9-color QuickGen Military Range set, which includes complementary tones such as German Grey, Field Grey and US Olive Uniform. The colors are designed to work harmoniously, allowing you to build visual variety across squads, armies or vehicle groups. The set includes:
Because military greens have been part of the miniature world for many years, various compatibility charts list similar tones across well-known brands. This is helpful if you want to expand older projects or match existing schemes. DAK Green sits comfortably among muted, utilitarian greens with a slightly warm undertone.
In practical use, the color shines on Afrika Korps vehicles, dusty or sun-worn camouflage, medium armor, and historic or modern infantry uniforms. When highlighted with lighter greens or sandy tones, it quickly develops a weathered, natural look. It also works surprisingly well as a base for organic or creature models thanks to its earthy shadow qualities.
DAK Green performs well with a wide range of techniques: drybrushing, edge highlights, layering, glazing and controlled washes. Its high coverage ensures that the green remains visible even in thin or blended applications, helping you build depth with minimal effort.
Whether you're painting your first historical vehicles or expanding a seasoned wargaming force, DAK Green provides a reliable, versatile foundation. The color supports fast tabletop work as well as more advanced realistic finishes, giving you space to develop your creativity and personal style with confidence.
