Paint set VALLEJO Game Color Sci‑Fi Paint Set 12 x 18 ml (72.313)

VALLEJO Game Color Sci‑Fi Paint Set 12 x 18 ml provides a curated palette of water‑based acrylic paints designed specifically for science fiction and futuristic miniatures. The set is part of the Game Color range and includes twelve 18 ml bottles formulated for consistent coverage, smooth application and compatibility with common modelling materials such as plastic, resin and metal. These ready‑to‑use colors support basecoating, layering and fine detail work, helping hobbyists achieve clean, even tones on tabletop figures and model kits without the need for thinning for most brush applications.

Advantages

The paints in this set are water‑based and non‑toxic when used as directed, offering low odor and easy cleanup with water. Formulated for good pigmentation and flow, they deliver uniform coverage and predictable drying times suitable for sequential layering and highlights. Bottles are sized for regular hobby use and are compatible with common techniques such as wet blending, glazing and washes when diluted. The Game Color formulation is engineered to adhere well to plastics, resins and metals after proper surface preparation.

How to use

Prepare model surfaces by cleaning and priming with a compatible primer to ensure adhesion. Shake each bottle well before use to mix pigments. Apply with a fine brush for details or a larger brush for basecoats; for airbrushing, thin paints according to your airbrush manufacturer’s recommendations. Allow adequate drying time between layers to avoid lifting previously applied paint. For washes, glazes or smoother blends, dilute paint with water or a Vallejo‑recommended thinner.

Usage recommendations

Store paints upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a good primer suited to the model material, test colors on a scrap surface before application, and clean brushes immediately after use with water.
