Rolls Royce Armoured Cars and AK Interactive Paints
« on: February 02, 2018, 05:35:56 PM »

Hi all,

More additions to my WW2 Desert vehicles with these lovely Perry Miniatures Rolls Royce Armoured Cars which will grace the table in our next Op Compass Campaign Game.

I've taken the opportunity with these early war British to try out AK Interactive Caunter Paints set, plenty of discussion re this on the blog page.

Perry's stuff as always is a pleasure to work with. Going to try some German Armour next, load the RAL8000 !

Regards Ken

Jolly nice Ken. I like AK Interactive. The paints are dead matt and have a lovely consistency and depth of colour. And I think their washes and weathering compounds are great. I’ve used them on all my Western Desert armour.

The RR AC is one of my favourite vehicles, and you've done a great paint job on that model

Top job 8)

Much prefer this colour combo for Caunter too 8)

Thanks for your thoughts on the AK paints as well; really wasn't keen on the earlier MiG ones (developed by the same guy iirc) and wasn't sure about these
