Acrylic Paint VALLEJO Model Air Gunship Green 17 ml Bottle

VALLEJO Model Air Gunship Green 17 ml Bottle is a water-based matt acrylic paint formulated for airbrushing and fine model work. This Gunship Green shade is part of the Model Air range, developed from historical military references to provide accurate tones for scale models, miniatures and military subjects. The paint comes in a 17 ml eyedropper bottle that preserves the product and allows precise dispensing for layering, detailing and mixing with other acrylics.

Advantages

Model Air offers a consistent flow and rapid drying time, producing a homogeneous film that preserves fine surface detail. The formulation is non-flammable and solvent-free, reducing handling risks while remaining compatible with Vallejo thinners, flow improvers and standard acrylic mediums. The eyedropper bottle minimizes evaporation and waste, enabling accurate dosing for airbrush or brush application.

Suitable for

• Airbrushing scale models, aircraft and military miniatures
• Layering and subtle shading on plastic and resin kits

How to use

Prime the model surface before applying Model Air for optimal adhesion and colour fidelity. For airbrushing, use the paint directly or dilute with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver to achieve the desired viscosity. Apply in several thin layers rather than a single heavy coat, allowing short drying intervals between passes. For brush application, use a clean, quality brush and apply thin coats to preserve surface detail. Clean the airbrush after use with Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner to maintain proper function.

Usage recommendations

For consistent results when airbrushing, set compressor pressure to about 15–20 PSI (0.5–1 kg) and work with multiple thin passes. Store the bottle upright with the cap closed to prevent contamination and drying. Refer to official safety data for handling and disposal information.
