Vallejo Model Color 70747 Faded Red Matt (18 ml)

Vallejo Model Color 70747 Faded Red Matt (18 ml) is a faded red shade from the professional Vallejo Model Color line. Vallejo Model Color is a line of water-based matte acrylic paints designed primarily for precise brush painting. It is ideal for plastic models, historical figures, wargaming miniatures, and dioramas.

The new Model Color formula offers excellent brushwork, superb coverage, and a matte finish. The paints dry quickly and form a uniform, self-leveling coat that preserves even the finest details of the model. For the best adhesion and a clean finish, we recommend applying the paint to a pre-primed surface.

Thanks to its smooth consistency, the paint is easy to mix and layer. It is ideal for modelers who want maximum control over detail, smooth transitions, and clean brushwork.
