Vallejo True Metallic Paints
Vallejo True Metallic Paints offer hobbyists a professional-grade solution for painting armor, weapons, machinery, and decorative details with unmatched brilliance. Designed specifically for miniature painting and scale modeling, these metallics provide rich pigmentation, ultra-fine flakes, and smooth flow for consistent, streak-free coverage. Whether you're achieving bright steel, aged bronze, polished gold, burnished copper, or weathered iron, Vallejo’s metallic formulations deliver depth and realism straight from the bottle.
Ideal for fantasy miniatures, sci-fi troops, vehicles, historical models, and display pieces, these paints can be used for both brushwork and airbrushing. Their excellent opacity means fewer coats, while their strong acrylic binding ensures durability during handling and gameplay. Mix them with traditional Vallejo colors, washes, and inks to shade, tint, or boost contrast. Whether you're new to painting or a competition-level artist, Vallejo True Metallics provide a versatile, reliable foundation for stunning metallic finishes in any hobby project.
1. What makes Vallejo True Metallic Paints stand out?
Vallejo True Metallics use ultra-fine metal flakes suspended in a smooth acrylic medium, producing natural shine and excellent opacity. Unlike cheaper metallics, they don’t clump, streak, or leave visible texture. Their consistency works well for thin highlights, edge work, and broad armor plates.
2. Are Vallejo metallics good for beginners?
Yes. Their consistent coverage and easy blending make them beginner-friendly. They perform well without needing special additives, yet they also scale with advanced techniques like glazing, oil shading, and airbrushing. Even new painters will find success highlighting armor or weapons with minimal effort.
3. Can these metallics be used with an airbrush?
Absolutely. Vallejo True Metallics thin smoothly with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or a small amount of distilled water. Their fine pigments spray cleanly even through small nozzles, producing even coats without graininess. Perfect for vehicles, large models, and smooth gradients on armor plates.
4. Do I need to prime before using metallics?
Yes. A primed surface helps metallic pigments adhere properly and improves shine. Black primer enhances depth and contrast, while white or grey primer produces brighter, more reflective finishes. Choose your primer color based on the metallic tone you’re aiming for.
5. How do I shade Vallejo True Metallics effectively?
Metallics respond beautifully to washes, inks, and contrast-style shading. Brown washes create warm, weathered metal; black washes sharpen recesses; and colored inks add cool or warm undertones. Glazing with thin paint layers can further boost depth for display-level results.
6. Can Vallejo metallics be mixed with non-metallic paints?
Yes. You can tint metallics with standard Vallejo colors to shift the hue—adding blue for cold steel, red for heated metal, or brown for aged bronze. Avoid over-thinning with matte colors, which can dull the metallic effect; add color gradually while retaining shine.
7. Are these paints durable on gaming miniatures?
Vallejo metallics dry into a strong acrylic film that resists rub-off during regular handling. For tabletop miniatures, seal the finished model with a matte, satin, or gloss varnish depending on your preferred finish. Metallics retain their shine under most varnishes when applied lightly.
8. What models and genres benefit most from these paints?
They’re perfect for fantasy knights, steampunk machines, sci-fi armor, historical troops, vehicles, weapons, trim, and ornamental details. Whether you're painting Warhammer armies, historical armor, or RPG heroes, Vallejo metallics create lifelike, eye-catching metal surfaces.
9. How should I store and care for metallic paints?
Shake thoroughly before use—metallic flakes settle faster than standard pigments. Store bottles upright, keep caps clean, and periodically stir or shake older bottles to maintain smooth consistency. Avoid exposing paints to extreme heat or cold.
10. Do Vallejo Metallics pair well with other brands?
Yes. They blend well with washes and inks from Army Painter, Citadel, Green Stuff World, AK Interactive, and Secret Weapon–style shading. They can also be layered over or under other brands’ acrylics without compatibility issues, making them a versatile addition to any paint rack.
