The Vallejo Model Air Color Selection 71171 is an extensive set for model makers who regularly work with an airbrush. The selection contains 80 x 18 ml bottles: 74 Model Air colors and 6 auxiliary products. It combines basic colors, historically referenced shades and metallics with varnishes, thinner, flow improver and chipping medium. This makes the set suitable for a wide range of projects, including military vehicles, aircraft, scenery and other scale models.
Vallejo Model Air is a paint range developed with airbrush use in model making in mind. This Color Selection includes shades for general painting as well as more specific historical color schemes. Examples include RLM70, RLM71, RLM82 and RLM83, several Olive Drab shades, Russian Green 4BO, Panzer Dark Grey and NATO Green.
The selection also includes metallic colors such as Aluminium, Silver, Chrome, Steel, Gold, Bright Brass, Copper and Gunmetal. This gives you colors for camouflage, interiors, metal components, details and finishing in one extensive collection. At Scenery Workshop, this Model Air set is particularly useful for hobbyists who want to add a broad airbrush color palette to their workbench in one go.
Scale modelling often requires considerably more than a few basic colors. A military vehicle may need several greens, browns, greys and metallic shades, while aircraft frequently require specific historically referenced colors. This Color Selection combines those specialized shades with versatile colors such as White, Black, Medium Yellow, Blue and a wide variety of earth tones.
The 18 ml bottles also make it practical to keep a large palette organized on the hobby bench. Gloss, Matt and Satin Varnish provide a choice of final finishes. Airbrush Thinner and Airbrush Flow Improver support airbrush work, while Chipping Medium can be used for weathering techniques designed to reproduce areas of worn and chipped paint.
Shake the selected color thoroughly before use so the paint is properly mixed. Apply it with an airbrush in thin, controlled coats. Building up several light coats generally gives you greater control than applying one heavy layer, particularly when working on camouflage patterns, gradients and subtle coverage.
Airbrush Thinner can be used when additional thinning is required for your application, while Airbrush Flow Improver can help adjust flow characteristics during airbrushing. For weathering, combine different browns, rust colors and earth tones. Chipping Medium can be incorporated into a weathering process to create worn paint effects on tanks, vehicles and other surfaces. Matt, Satin or Gloss Varnish can then be selected according to the finish required.
Consider the subject you are painting and the colors it requires. Historical scale modellers can make good use of the many specific military and aviation shades, while terrain and scenery builders may find the extensive selection of greens, browns, greys and sand colors particularly useful. Metallic shades are suitable for weapons, engine components, tools, exhausts and other metal details.
This 71171 Model Air Color Selection contains 80 bottles and is therefore primarily intended as a broad collection. If you only need a few specific shades, individual colors may be more practical. If you want to establish an extensive Model Air palette together with useful auxiliary products, this selection at Scenery Workshop provides plenty of options for different modelling projects.
