Acrylic paint Arcus RLM 81b Dunkelgrün (Dark Green) A261
RLM 81b Dunkelgrün High quality semi-gloss Luftwaffe late WWII dark green khaki acrylic or enamel paint for scale models and historical miniatures. RLM 81b Dark Green Guide:
The RLM 81 first appeared in the detailed directives GL/CE 10 Nr.10585/43 (IVE) Az.82b 10 of 21 July 1944. However, its official adoption took place later, in August 1944, as stated in Sammelmitteilung Nr. 1.
By 1944, Luftwaffe bombers had undergone strategic changes in their camouflage scheme. The traditional green color of the RLM 70 / RLM 71 has given way to the characteristic RLM 81 Dunkelgrün, which should replace the darker color of the RLM 70, as described in Sammelmitteilung Nr. 1.
From late 1944, RLM 81 Dunkelgrün, along with RLM 82 Hellgrün, was also used to camouflage Luftwaffe fighters.
In addition to the dark green shade (RLM 81b Dunkelgrün), there was also a darker version known as RLM 81a Braunviolett.
