Vallejo Game Color Set 72303 Metallic Colors (8)

Vallejo Game Color Sets offer carefully curated selections of highly pigmented acrylic paints with a flexible satin finish, designed primarily for painting fantasy and sci-fi miniatures. Each set focuses on a specific theme—such as leather textures, armor, skin tones, OSL effects, undead, orcs, or NMM (Non-Metallic Metal).

The paints have excellent adhesion and, once dry, create a durable satin finish that is ideal for detailed work as well as casual miniatures gaming. They are suitable for both beginners and professional miniatures painters.
