Acrylic paint VALLEJO 70.874, Brown (Tan Earth), 17 ml bottle

VALLEJO 70.874 Brown (Tan Earth) is a 17 ml bottle of matt, opaque acrylic paint formulated for brush-on application in modelling, miniature painting and general hobby use. The water-based formula features a high pigment concentration that provides consistent coverage and forms a rapid-drying, self-leveling film. Supplied in a small dispenser bottle for controlled application and convenient storage, this acrylic paint is compatible with common hobby thinners and varnishes and adheres well to primed surfaces including resin, plastics, metal and white metal.

Advantages

The paint delivers high pigment density in a matt finish for uniform, opaque coverage on small and large areas alike. It dries quickly to a homogenous film that levels itself, enabling detailed brushwork as well as broader strokes. The water-based composition allows simple brush cleaning with water and compatibility with typical hobby solvents, thinners and varnishes when additional finishing or effects are required. Exceptional adhesion on multiple modelling substrates reduces the need for repeated coats when applied over a suitable primer.

Suitable for

• Miniature and figure painting
• Scale model vehicles, aircraft and military models
• General hobby projects and dioramas
• Detailing, shading and base-coating small parts

How to use

Shake the bottle gently before use to ensure pigment is evenly dispersed. Apply the paint over a primed surface for best adhesion and uniform coverage. Use the dispenser tip to control the amount of paint placed on the palette or directly on the brush. For fine details work use thin layers and let each layer dry before applying the next; for larger coverage apply slightly diluted coats to improve flow and leveling. If needed, mix with compatible hobby thinners or other acrylics from the same range to adjust viscosity or achieve glazing effects.

Usage recommendations

Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place and reseal after use to preserve consistency. Test compatibility on a small area when combining with unfamiliar primers, varnishes or solvents. Clean brushes immediately with water to maintain brush life and avoid cross-contamination of colors.
