Paint VALLEJO Model Color 70.769 Mustard Brown 18 ml - acrylic model paint

VALLEJO Model Color 70.769 Mustard Brown 18 ml is an acrylic model paint formulated for scale models and miniatures. This water-based, pigment-rich paint delivers even coverage and good opacity in an 18 ml bottle suitable for hobbyists and professional modellers. Designed for brush application, it adheres to plastic, resin and metal surfaces after proper surface preparation and can be used for basecoats, detailing and small touch-ups on models and dioramas.

Advantages

The paint offers consistent flow and colour stability, allowing for controlled layering and fine detail work. Its water-based formula makes thinning and cleanup straightforward with water or acrylic thinner. The small bottle size is convenient for handling and storage, and the formulation minimises brush drag while maintaining a durable finish when fully cured.

Suitable for

• Brush painting basecoats on scale models and miniatures
• Detailing and fine line work on figures and vehicles
• Touch-ups and small repairs on plastic, resin and metal parts
• Diorama elements and small terrain pieces

Key specifications

• Paint type: water-based acrylic
• Finish: opaque, matte to satin depending on application
• Volume: 18 ml
• Application method: brush; can be thinned for airbrush use
• Colour family: warm brown / mustard tone

How to use

Shake the bottle gently before use to ensure pigments are well distributed. Apply directly with a fine brush for detail work or with a larger brush for basecoats. For smoother, thinner coats or airbrush application, dilute with a small amount of water or an appropriate acrylic thinner until the desired consistency is reached. Allow sufficient drying time between layers to avoid lifting previously applied paint.

Usage recommendations

Prepare surfaces by cleaning and priming with a suitable primer for best adhesion. Test colour and thinning ratio on a scrap piece before applying to the final model. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place and cap tightly after use to preserve paint quality.
