The Tamiya 82129 Olive Drab 2 lacquer provides a faithful olive drab shade for models of late WWII US vehicles in a handy 10ml bottle. Its consistency supports both airbrush coverage and careful brushwork, helping modellers achieve realistic flat tones on hulls and turrets.
This lacquer cures to a tough surface that works well under subsequent enamel layers and resists light handling during assembly and weathering. For consistent flow and finish use Tamiya lacquer thinner and allow short flash times between coats.
Note that lacquer variants can show slight hue shifts compared with Tamiya acrylics or aerosols of the same name, which can be exploited for subtle contrast when layering paints.
