Paint - VALLEJO Game Air Imperial Blue 18 ml

VALLEJO Game Air Imperial Blue 18 ml is an acrylic airbrush paint formulated for miniature and model painting. Part of the Game Air range, this paint offers an airbrush-ready consistency that promotes smooth, even coverage and controlled layering on figures, miniatures and scale models. The 18 ml bottle is suited for hobbyists and model builders who require a reliable blue tone for basecoats, layering and glazed effects.

Advantages

This airbrush paint provides ready-to-use fluidity that reduces the need for thinning, ensuring consistent spray patterns and fewer nozzle clogs. Pigmentation is balanced to deliver good opacity in thin coats while allowing for transparent glazing or gradual build-up when needed. Fast drying time speeds up workflow and helps prevent dust pickup, and the acrylic formulation is compatible with other water-based hobby paints and primers when properly prepared.

Suitable for

• Airbrushing basecoat and layers on miniatures and figures
• Painting scale models, vehicles and scenery
• Applying glazes, washes and thin highlights with controlled opacity
• Wargaming armies and large batch painting

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to homogenize pigments. For airbrushing, prime the model with a suitable primer and test spray on a surface to check flow and coverage. Apply thin, even passes at moderate pressure, allowing each pass to dry briefly before adding additional layers to achieve the desired opacity or shading. If needed, thin with the manufacturer's recommended thinner for very fine detail or lower nozzle sizes. Clean the airbrush and cap thoroughly with water after use to avoid clogs.

Usage recommendations

Use the paint at room temperature and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store upright with the cap tightly closed. For best adhesion and colour fidelity, prime models before applying Game Air Imperial Blue and allow full curing between coats.
