General Series
The core of the AK 3G range — 230 colours covering every colour family from whites and greys through reds, browns, greens, and blues, to metallics, transparent clears, and pre-formulated inks. Includes high-intensity Punch colours (fluorescents, luminous tones), a complete flesh and skin tone palette for figure painters, and pin wash inks for immediate panel depth effects. The most versatile and broadly applicable of the four AK 3G series.

Dedicated armour colours from WWI British and French tanks through to current IDF, NATO, and coalition subjects. The German RAL system is covered in exceptional depth — multiple period variants of Dunkelgelb (RAL7028 Initial, Ausgabe 1944, and Variant), two versions of Olivgrün, and three of Rotbraun, reflecting documented factory variation across the war. Also covers MERDC four-colour Cold War camouflage, NATO three-tone, British SCC colours, Soviet 4BO/6K/7K, Australian camouflage, IDF across four decades, and Gulf War subjects. The Figure Series (40 colours) is included in the same guide — a five-step flesh tone system and complete uniform palette covering Waffen-SS camouflage, Heer Field Grey, Soviet khaki, US Olive Drab, British battledress, and desert uniform bases.

The most period-specific aircraft paint range available. Where most manufacturers offer a single RLM 65 or RLM 76, the AK 3G Air Series covers multiple time-period variants — RLM 65 in 1938 and 1941 formulations, three versions of RLM 76, two each of RLM 78 and RLM 79, and three of RLM 81. Coverage spans WWI German lozenge schemes through WWII Luftwaffe, RAF, USAAF, IJN, IJA, and Soviet VVS, to a full Cold War and Modern section with FS 595 greys for F-15, F-16, F-22, F-117, and A-10 subjects.
