Vallejo Metallic Metal Amethyst Purple - Airbrush

Vallejo Metallic Metal Amethyst Purple – Airbrush Paint is a deep, jewel-like metallic purple that brings a premium alloy look to scale models. It sits between a rich violet and a dark metallic plum, making it ideal for futuristic plating, elite-unit accents, and fantasy or sci-fi metalwork. The airbrush-ready acrylic sprays smoothly straight from the bottle, using ultra-fine metallic pigment for an even, realistic sheen that won’t hide panel lines, rivets, or surface texture.

• Jewel-toned metallic purple for anodized or arcane alloy effects
• Airbrush-ready acrylic metallic for smooth, consistent spraying
• Ultra-fine pigment for realistic metal sheen without grainy sparkle
• Builds up in thin coats, preserving crisp surface detail
• Excellent base for shading, glazing, chipping, and weathering

Suggest Uses

• Gundam and mecha trims, frames, thrusters, and accent panels
• Sci-fi and fantasy miniatures needing enchanted or elite armor tones
• Aircraft cockpit highlights, instrument bezels, and custom accents
• Armor models for stylized markings or high-contrast detail parts
• Dioramas and terrain: alien tech, relics, statues, machinery, treasure props

Tips

• Prime black for maximum depth, or grey for a brighter pop
• Spray several light coats for the smoothest metallic finish
• Edge-highlight with silver or a lighter purple metallic for contrast
• Deepen recesses with thin violet/black glazes or a smoke wash
• Seal with clear varnish if you plan heavy masking or handling
