The Amethyst Purple True Metallic Metal Paint Set from Vallejo is a great choice for painters seeking a deep, magical purple metal finish. This set is ideal for enchanted weapons, fantasy armor, mystical artifacts or sci-fi accents. It follows Vallejo’s BSL system: Base, Shade, Light, with an additional airbrush version for large surfaces.

The set includes four 18ml bottles:

• 77108 Amethyst Purple (Light) – A bright and shiny metallic purple used for highlights and edge accents.
• 77128 Amethyst Purple (Base) – A rich and saturated purple metallic basecoat with excellent coverage and shine.
• 77148 Amethyst Purple (Shade) – A non-metallic satin wash designed to darken the Base layer without killing its shine. Perfect for recesses and subtle shadow transitions.
• 77168 Amethyst Purple (Airbrush) – Airbrush-ready version of the Base tone, designed for smooth, even application on large areas or blended gradients. No thinning needed.

This set gives you the flexibility to build a realistic purple metal finish without relying on complex NMM (non-metallic metal) techniques. The Shade adds depth and shadow, while the Light adds intensity and brilliance. Used together, they produce a polished metallic effect ideal for both display pieces and gaming miniatures.

The paints are water-based, low odor, and formulated with fine metallic pigments that give smooth results by brush or airbrush. The colors can be mixed for custom hues or used in combination with other TMM sets for more creative variety.

Tips for best results:

• Shake well before use, especially metallics and washes.
• Prime your models in dark tones to enhance metallic contrast.
• Apply thin layers and build up slowly for optimal shine and detail control.

If you want to add a bold, mystical touch to your miniatures, the Amethyst Purple set delivers all the tones you need to bring your vision to life — from subtle shadow to sparkling light.
