Modern Russian vehicles Vol.2 & Expo Camouflage Acrylic paint sets
AMMO of Mig Jiménez

AMMO continue issuing new paint sets at a rate of knots, and are garnering some fans with the quality of the paint and their fidelity to the real thing, which is always good. These two new sets expanding on the colours available to the Russian AFV modeller, which is rather handy given the profusion of new kits of the ultra-modern Armata variants that are coming to market. The sets arrive in the standard long cardboard box with a header to facilitate hanging on one of those merry-go-round display stands in shops. Inside is a clear tray that holds six dropper style paint pots neatly in the box, avoiding all the paints spilling out at once in a Donkey-Kong style. The bottles contain 17ml of paint, plus a stainless steel ball bearing for easy mixing of the paint by shaking. The yellow caps are indicative of the new BB equipped sets, which weren't introduced until fairly recently.

Modern Russian Camouflage Colours Vol.2 (A.MIG-7161)
This is the second set in the series, although we've not yet reviewed that one, you can get it here to complement this set. The colours in the box are as follows:

A.MIG-046 Matt Black, A.MIG-051 Light Green, A.MIG-057 Yellow Grey, A.MIG-070 Medium Brown, A.MIG-083 Zashchitniy Zeleno, A.MIG-210 Gray Blue.

Russian Expo Camouflage Scheme (A.MIG-7162)
These colours are designed to match the splinter patterns used on the T-14 and T-15s at the Russian Arms Fair, with two main schemes used. The faded yellow colour is a completely new mix for the set, and the rest of the set is as follows:
