Obsidian Black Light (77120) is a vibrant metallic black highlight paint in an 18ml bottle, specifically formulated to provide bright edge highlights and reflective accents within Vallejo’s True Metallic Metal (TMM) Obsidian Black colour family.

The full Obsidian Black colour family includes:

• 77120 Obsidian Black (Light) – The highlight version
• 77140 Obsidian Black (Base) – Metallic black basecoat
• 77160 Obsidian Black (Shade) – Non‑metallic satin wash for shadows and depth
• 77180 Obsidian Black (Airbrush) – Airbrush‑ready version of the Base

This paint is ideal for highlighting edges, curved surfaces and reflective elements on models painted in the black metallic tone. It's perfect for sci‑fi panels, dark armour pieces or any surface where subtle metallic shimmer adds depth.

The paint is designed for brush application (and can be slightly thinned if needed for smoother blending). Within the BSL workflow (Base, Shade, Light), apply the Base coat first, then the Shade layer, and finally this Light layer for full effect.

Key features:

• Bright metallic black highlight paint with subtle shimmer
• Highlights metallic surfaces painted with Obsidian Black Base
• Water‑based acrylic, low‑odor and fine metallic pigment formulation

Usage tips:

• Shake the bottle thoroughly before use to ensure even pigment distribution
• Prime your model dark to enhance metallic contrast and depth
• Use a fine brush for crisp edge highlights or dry‑brush for broader glow areas

If you’re looking to bring subtle yet sophisticated metallic black details to your miniatures, Obsidian Black Light gives you exactly that. Use it in combination with the full Obsidian Black colour family to create integrated, reflective finishes that stand out.
