Celestial Violet Shade (77149) is a non‑metallic satin wash in an 18ml bottle, part of the Celestial Violet colour family within Vallejo’s True Metallic Metal (TMM) range. This wash is engineered to add subtle shadows, depth and tonal variation over your violet metallic base layer, while preserving its reflective finish.

The full Celestial Violet colour family includes:

• 77109 Celestial Violet (Light) – Metallic highlight tone for accent edges
• 77129 Celestial Violet (Base) – Metallic violet basecoat
• 77149 Celestial Violet (Shade) – This satin wash for shadows and depth
• 77169 Celestial Violet (Airbrush) – Airbrush‑ready version of the base tone

This wash is ideally applied into recesses, panel lines or transitional areas to simulate natural shadow and depth on violet metallic surfaces. Because this variant contains no metallic particles, it subtly darkens without interfering with the reflective metallic base coat.

Key features:

• Non‑metallic satin wash designed specifically for violet metallic finishes
• Part of the structured BSL workflow (Base → Shade → Light) plus Airbrush version
• Water‑based acrylic, low‑odor and user‑friendly

Usage tips:

• Shake the bottle thoroughly before use to ensure even distribution of pigments
• Apply selectively to recessed areas and transitions for best effect
• Dilute with water or medium if desired for glazing or softer edges

By using the full Celestial Violet colour family – Base, Shade, Light and Airbrush – you achieve a layered, controlled metallic finish that stands out. Celestial Violet Shade gives your violet metal elements the finishing touch they need for depth and realism.
