Uniform Green from Vallejo Model Color is a subdued matte green designed specifically for painting World War II military uniforms. Part of the Panzer Series, developed in collaboration with Panzer Aces Magazine, this color is tailored for historically accurate figures representing Allied or Axis forces.
It features a neutral, slightly gray undertone that gives a realistic appearance to cloth and field gear. The matte finish avoids unwanted shine, making it excellent for photography and display models. Made with permanent pigments, Uniform Green is fully lightfast and won’t fade or yellow over time, even under varnish or sunlight.
The paint has a smooth consistency optimized for brushwork. It covers well in one or two coats, dries quickly, and leaves no brush marks. You can easily thin it with water or matte medium to create washes, glazes, or layered effects for shadow and depth.
For shading, Uniform Green pairs nicely with 70924 Russian Uniform or 70970 Deep Green. For highlights, mix with 70951 White or 70837 Pale Green. When painting gear or camo patterns, use 70871 Leather Brown or 70843 Cork Brown for realistic contrast and wear.
This color is also well suited for military-themed dioramas, working great on tents, backpacks, tarps, or canvas textures. Thanks to its toned-down look, it blends well into complex scenes without overpowering other elements.
The paint comes in an 18ml r-PET dropper bottle for clean and precise dosing. This helps prevent waste and drying out. If the tip clogs, simply clear it with a needle or toothpick.
Vallejo Model Color Uniform Green is an essential for any historical miniature painter focused on WWII subjects. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced modeler, this shade offers a reliable, authentic result for uniform painting.
