TMM AIRBRUSH Amber Green 18ml (175)

The Aged Metal acrylic paint is water-based and is part of the BLS system.

Vallejo True Metallic Metal contains 80 acrylic paints, divided into 20 color families, specifically developed for fantasy, historical, and sci-fi miniatures. It is a well-thought-out 4-stage system: Base-Light-Shade-Airbrush, where each color is available in its respective variant. This allows metallic surfaces to be built up step by step: from the opaque base color (Base) to targeted highlights (Light) and realistic shadows (Shade), all the way to the airbrush version for larger areas.

What is the True Metallic Metal Airbrush variant?
The Aged Metal Airbrush variant was specifically developed for use with an airbrush. It has a viscosity-optimized formulation and suitable surface tension, allowing it to be applied directly from the nozzle in the same shade as the Base variant.

Do I need prior knowledge for True Metallic Metal Airbrush paint?
If you are working with an airbrush, you should be familiar with the basics of pressure, nozzle diameter, and spraying technique. The True Metallic Metal Airbrush variant is optimally adapted for this application, so it can be sprayed efficiently directly from the bottle without needing significant thinning or adjustments. It is perfect for quickly priming large areas or achieving smooth blending effects, thus ideally complementing the Base variant.

For airbrush application, Vallejo recommends a setting of approximately 15-20 PSI (0.5-1 kg) and, if necessary, using Airbrush Thinner for thinner coats.

Application Tips
Use the airbrush paint for large metallic areas, backgrounds, or quick priming.
Gloss transitions or glazes can also be achieved with an airbrush in the same tone.
Remember to choose the appropriate nozzle and air pressure (e.g., low pressure for control).
If necessary, the airbrush paint can also be slightly thinned to create softer transitions or glazes, as long as the color tone is maintained.
