Vallejo Model Color Japanese Uniform WWII (70923) is a warm khaki-brown acrylic paint with a subtle yellow-ochre undertone. Designed to replicate the distinctive tones of Japanese WWII uniforms, this matte color offers excellent coverage and realistic shading for historical miniatures.
It closely matches Vallejo Game Color 72063 and is ideal for painting infantry uniforms, field gear, backpacks and tropical equipment used by the Imperial Japanese Army. Suitable for 1:35 and 1:72 scale projects, it captures the faded cloth and sun-worn gear of the Pacific and Asian theaters.
The paint is supplied in an 18ml transparent bottle with an eyedropper for precise dosing and preservation. This helps prevent drying out and reduces waste. If the nozzle clogs, it can be easily cleared with a needle or cocktail stick.
Its smooth consistency ensures a streak-free, matte finish when applied with a brush. The paint is fully opaque and lightfast, making it suitable for both basecoats and highlight layers. Thinned with water or matte medium, it can also be used for glazing and weathering effects.
Professional painters recommend applying Japanese Uniform WWII in thin layers to build up depth and realism. Whether you're painting jungle fatigues or sun-bleached canvas packs, this tone provides a natural, historically accurate result.
