Vallejo Model Color Set, 16 Basic Acrylic Paints for Airbrush, Matte Finish, 18 ml Bottles with Dropper, Ideal for WWII Aircraft Models

Pros: • Airbrush-Ready: The paints are pre-thinned and work flawlessly with my airbrush, providing smooth and even coverage without the need for additional thinning. • Versatile Application: While designed for airbrushing, these paints also perform well with traditional brush techniques, offering flexibility in application. • Vibrant Colours: The set includes a well-curated selection of basic colours that are highly pigmented, ensuring vibrant and consistent results. • User-Friendly: The dropper bottles are convenient, allowing for precise dispensing and minimising waste. • Low Odour and Easy Cleanup: Being water-based, these paints have minimal odour and clean up easily with water, making them ideal for indoor use. Cons: • Drying Time: Some colours take longer to dry, which can be a minor inconvenience during extended painting sessions. • Colour Range: While the set covers basic colors, it lacks certain shades like bright oranges and yellows, which may require additional purchases for specific projects. Overall, the Vallejo Model Air Basic Paint Set offers excellent quality and value, especially for those new to airbrushing or seeking reliable paints for various modeling projects. Its ease of use and consistent performance make it a worthwhile investment for hobbyists and professionals alike.

I ordered these to undercoat some models (I'm aware they're not designed for priming). I have an average quality airbrush and a decent compressor. I first mixed a deep red, thinned it with water and sprayed it directly onto some plastic models. Great! Quick-drying, opaque and smooth. Then I mixed a orange flesh tone, thinned with water, again directly onto plastic. Good results, not fully opaque. Painted some on top with a brush afterwards, worked well enough. Next a black / blue mix with a touch of brown and grey. Thinned with isopropyl alcohol because I hoped the airbrush would be easier to clean. Really good results, separated after being stored in the pot but came out of the airbrush nice and even. I tried to clean up a mistake later and a little of the undercoat rubbed off. Amazing how opaque it was when so thin, so I can forgive the low durability. Lastly I tried to undercoat in pure white. Thinning with isopropyl alcohol made it thicker, clogging the airbrush. Cleaned airbrush and tried water, but it was too thin and formed droplets on the plastic. Lastly I tried higher pressure with less water which worked better but the airbrush would splatter a bit. Overall, these have worked great since they're not designed as primers but are still versatile and opaque. I have only used a little as a second coat, so am mainly reviewing these from experience directly on plastic.

A good acrylic starter paint set for miniature figure painting.

I really like the Vallejo air paints, they work well over a white, grey or white zenithal undercoat, even when used with a normal brush. I wouldn't want to use these paints over a black basecoat (at least not by normal brush) because they are nowhere near as opaque as regular model paints. For that reason I also wouldn't recommend them as someone's first or only model paints. I'm a bit baffled by the choice of colours in this selection box -nearly half the box is various shades of yellow and brown, some of which are extremely similar to each other. I would have liked it if the Light Brown and Yellow Ochre had been dropped for something like a purple and a dark red instead, add a bit more variety instead. This lack of variety is why I'm giving it 4/5 instead of 5/5.

Yes these are expensive for a really quite small quantity of paint. However they are essential for spraying, where paint has to be very thin, as they have an exceptionally high pigment density

All the basic colours, nicely boxed, good paint for airbrushing.

Having recently returned to modelling I have discovered these new (to me) paints and the art of the airbrush. I find the ‘air’ series of these paints ideal for stepping up the visual quality of the finishes I can achieve. I am now building up a variety of colours for my modelling. I know modellers have their favourites but if you are new to the hobby and just getting started on airbrushing I personally think Vallejo are worth a try. I think they are great!

Can’t beat this product as I have been using this brand for years and has never let me down. Five stars from me

とても素晴らしい商品でした！ 塗料の発色が本当にきれいで、仕上がりに大満足です。においもまったく気にならず、子どもにも安心して使わせることができました。 趣味で工作や模型作りを楽しむ方はもちろん、これから始めてみたい方にもぜひおすすめしたい商品です。品質が高く、とても扱いやすいので、リピート間違いなしです！

Il set da una serie di colori primari e non. I colori sono buoni per un utilizzo ad aerografo ma almeno nel mio caso e con gli strumenti che possiedo richiedono una leggere diluizione per non intasare subito la duse. Su circa 5 gocce di colore devo inserire 2 gocce d'acqua per ottenere la giusta consistenza, consistenza per dure da 0,2 e inferiori. Le boccette sono piccole, veramente piccole, il che non rende questo prodotto realmente economico come lo si vuol fare apparire ma tutto sommato è un kit più che dignitoso per chi vuole iniziare senza svenarsi con colori ben più costosi. I colori sono abbastanza coprenti anche se a volte servono diversi passaggi per ottenere buoni risultati. Li consiglio.

Calidad.no hace falta decir más

Fantastyczne farby!

Peinture parfaite pour l'aérographe pour peindre des figurines ou model réduit. Je conseil d'acheter avec cette peinture le thinner et le flow improver de Vallejo pour le nettoyage et pour pulvériser plus longtemps sans que la peinture sèche dans votre aérographe.
