Vallejo Model Color Scarlet (70817) is a vibrant red acrylic paint, specifically designed for miniature painting and model building. This paint comes in a practical 18ml eyedropper bottle, allowing for precise dosing and minimizing waste. The bottle helps keep the paint fresh for longer. If the nozzle becomes clogged, it can be easily cleared with a needle or toothpick.

The Scarlet shade, comparable to Federal Standard 31400, RLM 23, Gunze H-414, Humbrol 60, Revell 330, and Vallejo Model Air 71003, is a bold, classic red tone that is highly versatile. Use this color to add striking accents to vehicles, flags, or to create vivid details on figures and dioramas. It’s also perfect for painting realistic shadows and highlights in your artwork.

Thanks to the advanced Model Color formula, this paint is fully lightfast and opaque, ensuring the color remains vibrant even after years of exposure to light. Scarlet dries to a matte finish and provides an ultra-smooth, even coat without visible brushstrokes. This makes it suitable for both beginner and professional painters.

For added flexibility, Scarlet can be easily thinned with water or mediums, making it ideal for techniques like glazing and layering. Professional painters often use a wet brush, applying the paint in thin, overlapping layers to create realistic depth and nuances. Mistakes can be quickly corrected with water or a small amount of alcohol if addressed immediately.

Unleash your creativity with Scarlet! Whether you’re painting a medieval knight, detailing a modern vehicle, or bringing a fantasy character to life, this color offers endless possibilities. Scarlet is also perfect for creating realistic blood or lighting effects, giving your projects an extra touch of drama and character.

With Vallejo Model Color Scarlet, you’re investing in a premium quality paint that elevates your miniatures to the next level. This versatile and rich red tone is a must-have for every painter looking for the perfect balance of strength, elegance, and usability.
