WWII Japanese Aircraft Colors by Mission Models

WWII Japanese aircraft colors by Mission Models provide historically accurate tones formulated from wartime documentation, factory standards, and surviving artifacts. These paints are the ideal choice for modelers who want true IJN and IJA color reproduction on iconic World War II aircraft such as the A6M Zero, Ki-43 Oscar, J2M Raiden, and G4M Betty.

What’s in This Collection

  • Authentic IJN and IJA tones including Mitsubishi Interior Green, Nakajima Brown, Zero Grey, and other verified wartime colors.
  • High-pigment, water-based acrylics that offer excellent coverage, smooth flow, and consistent atomization.
  • Accurate camouflage and interior shades for cockpits, undersides, upper surfaces, and factory-specific variations.
  • Airbrush-ready formulas that deliver clean lines and a stable matte finish ideal for weathering and detailing.

Benefits, Uses, and Practical Tips

  • Thin with Mission Models thinner to achieve optimal flow and control for both fine-line work and broad coverage.
  • Add polyurethane mix additive when increased durability is needed for masking or multi-layer camouflage patterns.
  • Apply in light, controlled layers to build realistic wartime fading and modulation common to IJN and IJA aircraft.
  • Use Transparent Medium for smooth tonal transitions on upper surfaces, cowlings, and sun-exposed panels.
  • Works on plastic, resin, and metal with reliable adhesion and a matte surface perfect for washes and oil weathering.
