Paint, VALLEJO Vallejo Ammo Jade Green Marble (2), model 2019095, specialty marble effect paint

VALLEJO Vallejo Ammo Jade Green Marble (2) is a specialty model paint formulated to reproduce jade green marble finishes on scale models, miniatures, diorama elements and scenic bases. Part of the Vallejo Ammo line, this product is supplied as a premixed effect paint that produces natural-looking veining and mottled stone textures without complex layering. It is suitable for adding decorative stone details to terrain, architectural elements and display bases where a jade marble appearance is required.

Advantages

This marble effect paint delivers a consistent jade green tone with built-in veining and texture variation, reducing the need for multiple glaze and drybrush stages. The formulation is designed for fine detail work on small surfaces and spreads evenly over prepared substrates. It adheres well to common modelling materials when proper surface preparation is observed and allows for selective removal or enhancement using thinners and varnishes compatible with Vallejo paints.

Suitable for

• Creating jade marble patterns on miniature bases and diorama floors
• Decorative finishing for terrain pieces and architectural details
• Adding veining and mottling to vehicle or figure bases
• Restoring or simulating stone surfaces in scale modelling scenes

Key specifications

• Finish: specialty marble effect with visible veining and mottling
• Color tone: jade green
• Intended use: decorative effect on models, miniatures and scenic elements
• Application: brush application; suitable for fine detail work
• Compatibility: formulated for use over primed surfaces and common modelling materials

How to use

Ensure the surface is clean, dry and primed with a Vallejo-compatible primer or other suitable model primer. Stir the bottle gently to homogenize the effect pigments. Apply the paint with a fine brush in thin layers, allowing each layer to dry partially to control veining and mottling intensity. Where needed, thin with an appropriate Vallejo thinner for smoother flows or to create subtler translucency. For sharper veins or highlights, apply selective strokes with a fine brush once the main layer is dry, and seal with a compatible varnish when the desired effect is achieved.

Usage recommendations

Test the paint on a scrap piece or inconspicuous area before applying to final work to determine drying behaviour and pigment distribution. Work in thin layers and build the effect gradually; use compatible thinners and varnishes from the same product line to avoid unintended reactions. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place and recap after use to preserve the effect properties.
