Vallejo Model Color German Camouflage Beige (70821) is a warm olive-beige acrylic paint specially designed for painting WWII military miniatures, vehicles and uniforms. Despite being called “Beige,” this tone has a distinct green-brown undertone, making it ideal for German camouflage patterns from the later war years.
It matches Federal Standard 33303 and can also be found in other Vallejo ranges like Model Air 71023 and Game Color 72061. Its earthy, natural tone makes it perfect for rendering dusty vehicles, worn equipment or weathered clothing under field conditions.
The paint comes in an 18ml transparent bottle with an eyedropper tip. This allows for precise dispensing, prevents waste, and helps keep the paint fresh for longer. If the nozzle becomes clogged, it can easily be cleared with a needle or cocktail stick.
Camouflage Beige dries to a matte finish and offers full opacity. Its smooth consistency allows for brush application without visible strokes, making it ideal for working in thin layers and building up realistic shadows, highlights and color transitions.
It is fully lightfast and can be thinned with water or acrylic mediums like matte medium. This makes it suitable for advanced techniques such as glazing, drybrushing and edge highlighting. Mistakes can be corrected easily with water or alcohol while the paint is still wet.
Vallejo Model Color German Camouflage Beige pairs perfectly with other camouflage tones like Olive Green, Chocolate Brown or Dark Yellow. It’s an essential shade for recreating authentic camouflage patterns on figures, tanks and WWII gear in 1:35 or 1:72 scale.
Whether you’re painting a Panzer IV, outfitting a field uniform or preparing a dusty terrain base, this warm olive-grey-beige tone delivers convincing and historically accurate results. Add Camouflage Beige to your collection and bring nuance and realism to your miniature projects.
