Vallejo Model Color Green Yellow (70881) is a muted olive-green acrylic paint with a subtle yellow undertone, designed for military vehicles, camouflage patterns and realistic weathering effects. Its earthy tone and matte finish make it a go-to color for historical modelers and miniature painters.

This tone corresponds to Federal Standard 34259 and is also available in the Model Air range as 71081. Green Yellow sits between field green and dusty olive, making it perfect for basecoats on tanks, armor and gear, particularly in WWII or modern diorama settings.

The paint comes in an 18ml transparent bottle with an eyedropper tip for precise dosing and minimal waste. If the nozzle becomes clogged, it can be easily cleared with a needle or cocktail stick.

Green Yellow is fully opaque and lightfast. It applies smoothly with a brush and dries to a consistent matte finish. The fine pigment allows for techniques such as layering, glazing, shading and drybrushing. It also performs well when thinned for airbrush applications.

For best results, it is often diluted with water or matte medium and applied in thin layers to build up realistic depth and transitions. Mistakes can be corrected easily while the paint is still wet using a bit of water or alcohol, making this a forgiving choice for beginners as well.

Vallejo Model Color Green Yellow pairs excellently with German Camo Olive Green, Dark Yellow or Khaki. Use it as a base tone for vehicles, a highlight for camo schemes or a weathering filter over terrain pieces to simulate dust and field wear.

Whether you're painting a Tiger I tank, an infantry satchel or a muddy trench wall, this warm olive-green shade adds credibility and atmosphere to any scale project. A staple color for anyone working on realistic military miniatures.
