Vallejo Model Air 3B Russian Green is part of the Model Air program of the Vallejo brand, specially developed for the airbrush and is a green-gray acrylic paint in a 17ml. eyedropper jar.
Model Air is a liquid acrylic paint specially developed for airbrush techniques available in a wide range of colours. The strength, hardness and covering power of Model Air is superior to all known acrylic paints for airbrushing. This green-grey paint consists of very fine pigments and an acrylic resin with properties of extreme strength and durability.
The revolutionary process of obtaining the pigments used in the Model Air formula ensures that it has the finest texture for applying the colours to a model. Colours can be mixed, Model Air Thinner, with water or any medium such as varnish, to achieve the desired effect. However, we recommend the use of Model Air Thinner as this product retains the properties of the medium and the colours. The paint also provides a great quality when applied with a brush for the finest details, washes and inks and is ideally suited for a layered application such as a glaze. The pigments used for this green-grey airbrush colour must be specially ground to achieve the best possible consistency to avoid clogging the airbrush. Model Air adheres exceptionally well to all surfaces. Once the green-grey paint is protected with varnish, (Gloss, Matte or Satin) Model Air can be painted over with solvent based paints such as enamels or oil paints.
The "eyedropper" (or eye dropper) ensures that the amount of paint can be dosed very easily and that the paint does not dry out so quickly. The unique thing about this green-gray paint is that it is supplied in a so-called "eyedropper" jar containing 17ml. acrylic paint. Of course, it can always happen that the opening sometimes gets a little clogged. You can easily solve this by using a needle or thin cocktail stick to clear the opening.
