Game Color 2.0 & Xpress Color Paints — Vallejo

Vallejo Game Color & Xpress Color RackThe new Game Color formulation from Vallejo represents a new approach to painting Fantasy and Wargame figures. Developed by experts together with professional modelers, the new range implies a further step in the evolution of miniature painting by offering an intuitive and easy-to-learn painting method to new generations.

The range has been designed according to the BSL (Base, Shadow, Light) figure paint system, based on chromatically compatible groupings of three colors, which offers the less experienced painter an easy choice of colors (shades) to paint miniatures with the appropriate highlights and shadows for each base color.

The new r-PET (recycled/recyclable) plastic bottle is completely transparent, improves color visualization, and enhances Vallejo’s commitment to sustainability and the environment. In addition to the new bottle, the new cap includes a security seal.

Game Color 2.0

The new Game Color formulation greatly improves the colors’ application. The paint spreads very smoothly, is more fluid and opaque and contains a high pigment saturation, chosen for their brightness, maximum stability, and resistance to light.

Colors are easy to apply and blend, and they offer a matt finish and excellent self-leveling properties that prevent brush strokes from showing on the painted surface. Formulated with state-of-the-art resins, paints provide a high resistance to handling and rubbing.

How to use: Apply with a brush. It can also be used with an airbrush if properly diluted with Airbrush Thinner.

Xpress Color

When we need to paint multiple figures in a fast way, Xpress Color is the ideal choice. These matt colors are specifically formulated to paint miniatures in a fast and easy way. 

The main characteristics are its excellent capillarity that allows the color to flow easily over the miniature surface, settling on all the reliefs and more intensely in the crevices of the figure, creating a contrast effect with a single layer of paint. 

It is recommended to apply Xpress Color on a white or grey primed or painted surface. The color will create light areas on the reliefs, saturated mid-tones, and intense shadows in the crevices of the figure. 

Like all Vallejo products, they are very versatile and can be applied over any color in the range to create soft shading and contouring effects, to create glazes or filters, and to blend transitions between color tones. 

Xpress Color can be mixed together or can be diluted with Xpress Medium to modify or create new shades.

How to use: Apply with a brush; it can also be used with an airbrush.

Game Color Metallic

Game Metallic also has an improved formulation that enhances the application. Colors are more fluid and apply easily over the figures.

The range has been designed according to the BSL (Base, Shadow and Light) figure paint system, based on chromatically compatible groupings of three colors, which offers the less experienced painter for an easy choice of colors to paint miniatures with the appropriate highlights and shadows for each base color.

The metalized pigment used in the formulation has an ultra-fine particle diameter which enhances the color properties and offers an excellent adherence and high resistance to handling and rubbing. Paints of the same range can be mixed together to achieve metallic effects of great intensity and realism.

How to use: Apply with a brush; it can also be used with an airbrush.

The Sepia and Black washes are available in a 200 ml. wide-mouth bottle. This special container allows you to quickly wash or shade by dipping the figures into the container.
