What distinguishes the True Metallic Metal set?

• Realistic metallic sheen thanks to finely ground metallic pigments.
• 4-step system facilitating effect building: base, shade, highlight, and airbrush variant.
• Water-based paints (acrylic) - convenient to use, low odor, and easy tool cleanup.
• For brush and airbrush - the set allows working with both techniques, depending on the scale and detail.
• Consistent color scheme - shades are selected to transition naturally between shadow and light.

Set Contents (4x18 ml)

• 77.103 Light - shade for highlights and edges.
• 77.123 Base - base color for Imperial Gold.
• 77.143 Shade - shade for shadowing and deepening contrast.
• 77.163 Airbrush - variant prepared for airbrush work and smooth transitions.

How to achieve the best effect?

The most convincing metal is achieved when working in layers. Start with the base color, then introduce the shade into recesses and joints, and finally add highlights to the edges and highest points. The Airbrush version allows for quickly building a smooth base or subtle tonal transitions on larger surfaces.

The paints are suitable for elements such as ornaments, fittings, buckles, weapon details, armor, and jewelry. The set is particularly useful when you want to achieve the effect of rich, "noble" gold without mixing many colors on the palette.

For whom?

• For modelers painting fantasy and historical miniatures.
• For those who want to achieve consistent gold shading in a short time.
• For brush and airbrush users - one set, many applications.
