The Modelcolor range contains over 200 colours and an extensive assortment of mediums and varnishes, designed especially for Miniature and Modelpainting. Those colours which have corresponding Federal Standard, Ral, and RLM equivalencies are so identified.
Modelcolor has been formulated with permanent pigments for fine arts; all colours are completely lightfast and opaque, (with the exception of the fluorescent and transparent colours, which are semi-opaque). A few metallic pigments (in an alcohol base) are included in the range, since these give a harder brilliance than the water based metallics.
The consistency of Modelcolor allows for an extremely smooth and uniform paintfilm, with no trace of brushstrokes. Professional model painters always work with a wet brush and dilute the paint with water or Mat Medium, applying many thin layers to achieve depth and shadows. Colours may also be diluted with other Mediums for glazes and layered applications.
The water based formula of Modelcolor has been specifically developed for adherence on difficult surfaces such as metal and plastic, but is not toxic, not flammable, and no noxious fumes. Errors can be corrected immediately with water or alcohol Modelcolor dries quickly to a matte, even and waterproof finish. Exact drying time depends on various factors although the colors are dry to the touch within minutes, the paint does not acquire its true permanence until several weeks after application.

Customer Reviews
I use this to basecoat bases which I will then be treating with AK Interactive Desert Sand Paste. It gives a solid basecoat wherein if the paste has not completely covered the area opaquely, the Iraqi desert paint underneath ensures it will not be noticable. Good for any sand or beige coloured items.
Attached to this review is an image of the paint itself, unadulterated or otherwise mixed/thinned down, on a wet palette. This is a more accurate depiction of the hue than that given on the official Vallejo swatches.
Vallejo Model Color products are the workhorse of my paint repertoire and you can't go wrong with their paints for painting miniatures, scale models or otherwise (look to other offerings for metallics, however Vallejo Metal Color products come highly recommended and is also water based). Remember to thin your paints, everybody!
Exactly the colour I wanted.
