VALLEJO Oilbrusher Set — Mechas Green Tones set for airbrush/oil-based painting

VALLEJO Oilbrusher Set — Mechas Green Tones contains a coordinated selection of oil-based paints in green shades formulated for use with Oilbrusher bottles and airbrush-compatible application. The range is tailored to modelers and hobby painters who need consistent green tones for miniatures, scale models and weathering tasks. Each colour in the set is prepared to flow smoothly from Oilbrusher dispensers while retaining the viscosity and drying characteristics typical of oil-based pigments.

Advantages

The set offers preselected green hues that reduce the time spent mixing and matching colours, ensuring uniform results across components and details. Oil-based formulation provides extended working time for blending, panel shading and subtle weathering effects. The packaging is compatible with Oilbrusher bottles and airbrush systems that accept oil-based media, allowing controlled application with either brush or airbrush. These properties support repeatable results on plastic, resin and painted metal surfaces when used as part of a model finishing workflow.

Suitable for

• Painting military and vehicle models with green camouflage schemes

How to use

Shake each Oilbrusher bottle briefly before use to ensure uniform pigment distribution. For airbrush application, verify that your airbrush and lines are suitable for oil-based media and adjust pressure according to desired flow. Apply thin, even layers and allow longer drying times between coats compared to acrylics. For brush work, use fine brushes and thin the paint if necessary to improve flow; clean tools with appropriate solvent for oil-based paints. When blending or creating weathering, work wet-on-wet for smooth transitions or use gradual glazing with thin layers to build depth.

Usage recommendations

Test the set on a spare part or sample surface before working on finished models to determine drying times and opacity. Use proper ventilation when applying oil-based paints and follow solvent and disposal guidelines. Combine shades from the set for controlled tonal variation and apply matte or satin varnish after full cure if a specific finish is required.
