The IONIC WWII Italian Army Uniform Set includes 12 acrylic paints carefully selected to represent the wide variety of uniforms worn by Italian forces during World War II, covering units such as the Fucilieri, Bersaglieri, and Alpini across different theatres of war including Europe and North Africa.

The set includes the colors you will need to paint the iconic Italian Grey-Green wool uniform, used extensively across Europe, the Balkans, and the Eastern Front. To capture natural variation caused by fabric and die lot differences, wear, and fading, the palette includes multiple grey-green and khaki tones. These colors are suitable for painting tunics, trousers, puttees, shirts, and headgear such as helmets and bustina caps.

The set also supports tropical and fatigue uniforms, with light khaki and sand tones appropriate for North Africa, Sicily, and summer operations, as well as medium grey shades for cotton fatigue dress. Browns and blacks are included for both black and brown leather equipment, including boots, belts, ammunition pouches, and rifle slings, alongside khaki tones for canvas items such as bread bags and water bottle straps. In addition, the set includes a skin tone and the colors needed to paint a rifle.

This comprehensive set includes the color Bone, a light tone intended for mixing with the any color to create highlights. Although each of these colors can be used as-is to paint individual elements of the figure, they can also be combined to create new shades or tones, they can also be mixed to create new shades or tones for generating volume by applying highlights and shadows.
