Vallejo Model Color 70749 Dark Purple is an 18 ml bottle of opaque, matte acrylic paint for miniature and model painting. It is water-based, odorless and cleans up with water, and it dries fast on white metal and resin. It is a niche shade in a line known for dense pigment and a flat finish.

Questions and answers

Is this paint good for miniatures?
Yes. It is designed for model and miniature painting, with opaque pigment and a matte finish. Thin it slightly for smooth layers.
Does it need a primer?
On white metal and resin it adheres best over a primer. Bare resin can bead up without one.
Is it waterproof once dry?
The dried film resists water, but it is still acrylic paint. A varnish coat adds durability for gaming pieces.
How long does it take to dry?
It dries fast, usually within minutes on a thin coat. That lets you layer without long waits.
Is it safe for indoor use?
It is non-toxic and odorless, so it is fine for normal hobby use. Keep it out of reach of small children.
When is the price lowest?
Model paint prices move little, but multi-bottle bundles and holiday sales tend to be the cheapest times.
