Acrylic paint bottle VALLEJO 71.330 Khaki Green No.3, 17 ml

VALLEJO 71.330 Khaki Green No.3 is a 17 ml water-based acrylic paint formulated for model making, miniatures and hobby painting. Supplied in a dispensing bottle for precise application, this matt acrylic is part of the Model Air range and is suitable for use with brushes or airbrush after thinning. The colour is based on historical military references and is intended to provide accurate tones for scale models from WWI, WWII and later periods. Dries rapidly to a durable, homogeneous film while preserving fine surface detail.

Advantages

This matt acrylic paint offers good pigmentation and fast drying, allowing for layering and detailed work without obscuring model details. The dispensing bottle enables controlled application for small areas and touch-ups. Model Air colours are formulated for airbrushing and can be used directly or diluted with the appropriate thinners, delivering a uniform finish and high resistance once dry.

Suitable for

• Scale models and military miniatures

How to use

Prime the model surface before painting to ensure adhesion and true colour. For airbrushing, dilute the paint as needed with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver and set compressor pressure in the recommended range (approximately 15–20 PSI / 0.5–1 kg) for best atomization. Apply in several thin, even layers, allowing each layer to dry quickly before the next. For brush application, use thin coats to avoid hiding fine detail. Clean the airbrush and tools with suitable cleaner after use.

Usage recommendations

Store the bottle upright and tightly closed. Work in a well-ventilated area and test colour on a scrap piece or hidden area before applying to the final model. For long-term results, use an appropriate acrylic primer and follow up with suitable protective varnish if required.
