Vallejo Model Color paints for model kits and miniatures
Model Color Vallejo is one of the classic acrylic ranges for modelling. It's designed especially for brush painting, with a matte finish, good coverage and a wide selection of colours for historical figures, vehicles, uniforms, dioramas, scenery and miniatures.
Why choose Model Color
- Matte finish: very useful for figures, military model kits, fabrics, skin, wood, leather and realistic surfaces.
- 18 ml dropper bottle: lets you dose the paint more precisely and keep it in good condition.
- Wide colour range: military tones, earths, greys, skin tones, metallics, bright colours and basic mixing shades.
- Brush application: works especially well in thin coats over primed surfaces.
How to use Vallejo Model Color
For a clean finish, shake the bottle well, apply the paint over a primed piece and work with several thin coats. You can dilute the paint slightly with water or acrylic medium to improve flow and keep the model's or miniature's details intact.
Complete your painting table with primers, varnishes, washes, auxiliary products and modelling brushes.
Frequently asked questions about Model Color Vallejo
Is Vallejo Model Color good for miniatures?
Yes. It's a widely used range for miniatures, historical figures and model kits. It particularly stands out with a brush thanks to its matte finish, coverage and control in thin coats.
Can Model Color be used with an airbrush?
It can be used with an airbrush if properly diluted, although the range is mainly designed for brush use. For airbrushing, Vallejo also has specific ranges and auxiliary products that help adjust the flow.
Do I need to prime before painting?
It's recommended. Priming improves adhesion, helps spot imperfections and makes it easier for the paint to cover more evenly.
