Acrylic paint VALLEJO 70.311 Brown 17 ml — liquid acrylic model paint

VALLEJO 70.311 Brown is a 17 ml liquid acrylic model paint formulated for brush and airbrush use on miniatures, scale models and craft projects. Part of the Panzer Aces range, this matt, opaque water-based paint is designed to provide even, consistent coverage while preserving fine surface detail. The ready-to-use fluid consistency and eyedropper bottle make precise detailing and small touch-ups straightforward, and the formulation offers good adhesion on common modelling materials including plastic, resin, metal and steel when applied over a primed surface.

Advantages

This brown acrylic paint dries rapidly to a homogenous, self-leveling matt finish that keeps sharp detail visible. It is solvent-free and non-flammable, allowing safe handling and easy cleanup of brushes and tools with water. The eyedropper bottle reduces evaporation and helps preserve leftover paint for extended use, making it practical for both single-detail work and repeated hobby sessions.

Suitable for

• Painting miniature figures and vehicle crews
• Detailing scale models (armor, aircraft, dioramas)
• Brush and airbrush applications for small projects
• Touch-ups and precise shading or highlighting on models

How to use

Shake the bottle gently before use to ensure pigment is mixed uniformly. For brush application use the paint straight from the bottle or thin slightly with water if a thinner wash is required; for airbrush use strain or thin according to your airbrush manufacturer's recommendations. Apply on a properly primed surface to ensure adhesion and optimal coverage. Allow each thin layer to dry before applying subsequent layers to build up color and preserve fine details.

Usage recommendations

Apply in thin, even coats to avoid obscuring model details. Test thinning ratios on a palette before airbrushing, clean tools with water immediately after use, and store the bottle upright with the cap closed to maintain paint quality.
