Add intense red metallic shine to your miniatures with the Ruby Red True Metallic Metal Paint Set from Vallejo. This four-color set is part of the True Metallic Metal range, following the BSL system: Base, Shade, Light, and includes a special Airbrush version for smooth large-area coverage.

The set contains four 18ml bottles:

• 77106 Ruby Red (Light) – A bright and glossy red metallic paint ideal for highlights and edges.
• 77126 Ruby Red (Base) – A deep, warm red metallic base coat with strong coverage and shine.
• 77146 Ruby Red (Shade) – A non-metallic satin wash designed to deepen shadows while maintaining the metallic shine of the Base layer.
• 77166 Ruby Red (Airbrush) – An airbrush-ready version of the Base tone, perfect for larger surfaces or smooth transitions. Ready to use straight from the bottle.

This set is ideal for fantasy weapons, magical armor, sci-fi gear, or standout vehicle details. The combination of reflective paints and matte washes allows you to create rich contrast and realistic volume without needing to rely on complex non-metallic metal (NMM) techniques.

Vallejo’s True Metallic Metal system enables painters to build realistic reflections and lighting effects with ease. Start with the Base, shade with the non-metallic wash, highlight with the Light, and cover broad areas using the Airbrush tone.

These paints are water-based, low odor, and highly pigmented, making them perfect for both brush and airbrush applications. They mix well with other TMM colors, giving you endless creative options to fine-tune your red metallic effects.

Tips for best results:

• Shake all bottles thoroughly before use, especially metallics and washes.
• Prime your model with a dark color to enhance metallic contrast.
• Apply thin layers to balance coverage and preserve reflectivity.

Whether you're painting a display piece or gaming army, the Ruby Red set offers a powerful and eye-catching solution for red metallic finishes. Bring life, light, and intensity to your miniatures with this vibrant red family!
