Customizing the look of your vehicle with Emblems, Inscriptions, and Flags has long been a part of the World of Tanks experience.

But if you want to dramatically refresh your tank’s appearance, customize it with Camouflage or a Skin!

Both Camo and Skins allow you to completely change the look of a tank. Both also provide a concealment bonus while applied.

Camo and Skins can be acquired using Gold, earned through Challenges, and received from Season Passes. Camo also can be acquired with Silver.

Camouflage

Camouflage/Camo is a paint job that you apply to the body of your tank. You can apply it either to part of a tank or to the entire exterior.

Camo that your purchase with Silver lasts only a few days after you apply it. Camo that you purchase with Gold, however, becomes permanently applied to your tank.

Camo patterns become active only on maps associated with the same environment:

• Summer Camouflage is automatically displayed on summer maps
• Winter Camouflage is automatically displayed on winter maps
• Desert Camouflage is automatically displayed on desert maps
• Urban Camouflage is automatically displayed on urban maps

Below are examples of different types of Camo patterns. These patterns were added to the game with the launch of Cold War mode.

Skins

Like Camo, Skins can be applied either to part of your tank or to the entire exterior. In addition to painting your tank a new color, they often also add visual elements like leaves or mesh netting for a completely different look.

Unlike Camo, Skins are active in every environment and provide a concealment bonus no matter what type of map you’re playing on.

The two main types of Skins available are Premium Skins and Hero Skins.

• Premium Skins are available to certain Tech Tree tanks and cost 2,000 Gold.
• Hero Skins are available to certain Premium tanks as well as to some Tech Tree tanks associated with licensed or special content. They cost 3,000 Gold.

Below are images of the Premium and Hero Skins that have been created so far. Take a look!

Additionally, some tanks have special event Skins. Availability of these Skins may be restricted to specific events or seasons.

Examples of special event Skins are the Black Friday 2021 Skins:

How to Apply a Skin or Camo

You can acquire, apply, and keep track of new Skins and Camo using a tank’s Customization menu:

• Select a tank from the “Tanks” tab.
• Press the corresponding button to enter the “Customize” menu.
• Head to the “Appearance” tab.
• Select “Camouflage.”

Skins will be denoted with a gold-colored spray gun icon and will be the first choices listed among the options.

After you acquire a Skin or Camo, you’ll see the option to apply it to all slots or simply the current selected slot. Mix and match your look!

How will you look when you achieve victory? The choice is yours!
