Description
Vallejo True Metallic Metal Light – Aged Metal (18ml)
Vallejo True Metallic Metal Light paints are formulated with real metallic pigments to deliver authentic metallic finishes with natural shine and high reflectivity. Unlike Non-Metallic Metal (NMM) techniques, which simulate metal using flat colors and stylized highlights, TMM Light retains the depth and brilliance of real metal, making it perfect for armor, weapons, machinery, and decorative details on miniatures and models.
This light variant is designed to brighten base metallic tones, providing luminous versions of the standard TMM colours. Blend them in various ratios to create intermediate highlights, achieving smooth, seamless transitions and realistic metallic gradients across your models.
Application
- Ready to Use: Apply TMM Light straight from the bottle with a brush only.
- Layering & Blending: Build highlights gradually over base metallics. Mix different TMM Light shades for smooth transitions and maximum effect.
- Versatility: Ideal for miniatures, fantasy figures, historical models, or any project requiring precise and realistic metallic effects.
Tips and Maintenance
- Technique: Follow the BSL system (Base – Shade – Light) to define volume, contrast, and highlights while preserving the authentic metallic shine.
- Care: Clean brushes thoroughly after use to maintain paint performance and extend the life of your brushes.
