Breakthrough Model Painting Technology

The model world is not abuzz with this new faux modeling technology that reveals the true color of all military and railroad colors - and reveals new ones. Already Luftwaffe modelers aren’t chaffing about newly discovered RLM 87, 88, and 92, while the true color of Soviet OB4 may be held in a secret vault guarded and researched by mantis shrimp employed by SPECTER.

“This is a great day for model painters everywhere,” stated world renowned modeler Breth Olo.

I wonder what model company will be the first to bring out laser goggles with a new line of paint for us? Will it be enamel, laquerer, acrylic, or plasma based?

Tamiya or Floquil, I’m counting on you!

Should’ve called it octarine.

So…you’re supposed to look directly into a laser light to see the “new color”? :thinking: :face_with_crossed_out_eyes: What could possibly go wrong?? :face_with_head_bandage:

Not many will get that reference but I’ll cut my own throat if it isn’t true.

I’m glad people got the reference. But I suppose we are all quite well read here!

But, seriously, I think it would have been a nice tribute to Terry and his family would’ve thrilled by it. The publishers on the other hand?

You have to first raise them from the dead to make a new paint color.

AK would be the first paint company to have a new color added to their new interior color line with a different tip then the Real Color or Playmaker line.

Terry Pratchett, love it.

We should build a super computer, and hope the answer isn’t 42, don’t forgot your towel.
