Vallejo Model Color Beige (70917) is a light sandy beige acrylic paint with a warm yellowish undertone. Ideal for painting worn fabrics, canvas, highlights, or dusty surfaces on vehicles and scenery, this shade brings natural warmth to historical and fantasy miniatures.

Comparable to Federal Standard 33695, Revell 10, Testors Model Master 1709, and Vallejo Game Color 72009, it’s a go-to color for desert themes, aged fabric effects, and subtle edge highlights on gear or uniforms.

Supplied in an 18ml transparent eyedropper bottle, the design allows precise dosing and helps prevent the paint from drying out. If the tip clogs, simply clean it with a needle or toothpick.

Vallejo Model Color Beige offers a smooth, matte finish with excellent opacity. It is fully lightfast and opaque, ensuring color consistency and durability. Its fine consistency makes it ideal for brush work without leaving visible strokes or texture.

This shade is perfect for layering techniques, and can be thinned with water or matte medium to create glazes or transparent layers. When used as a drybrush color over brown or khaki tones, Beige creates a dusty, weathered effect perfect for terrain and clothing details.

Pair it with shades like Buff, Middlestone, or Khaki to create realistic transitions and highlights. Use it to depict aged desert tents, faded uniforms, dried grasses or lightly dusted equipment on miniatures or diorama bases.

Whether you're painting a soldier in desert gear, highlighting a canvas backpack, or weathering crates and sandbags, Beige adds nuance and realism to your work in an understated but essential way.
