Vallejo Metallic Metal Hydra Turquoise - Airbrush

Vallejo Metallic Metal Hydra Turquoise Airbrush Paint 

A vivid metallic blue-green that looks like futuristic alloy, anodized metal, or magical patina straight out of the bottle. Sprays smooth through an airbrush, laying down a clean, even metallic coat that stays scale-accurate with ultra-fine pigment.

Use Hydra Turquoise when you want eye-catching contrast on Gundam trims, sci-fi panels, cockpit details, or terrain pieces that need a pop of exotic metal.

• Bright metallic turquoise tone for anodized or arcane alloy effects
• Airbrush-ready acrylic metallic for smooth, consistent spraying
• Ultra-fine pigment for realistic metal sheen without grainy sparkle
• Great coverage in thin coats, preserving fine surface detail
• Excellent for layering, shading, washes, and patina weathering

Suggested uses

• Gundam and mecha armor trims, vents, thrusters, and inner-frame accents
• Sci-fi and fantasy miniatures needing energy-metal or relic finishes
• Aircraft cockpit highlights, instrument surrounds, and small metal parts
• Armor models for stylized accents, markings, and detail contrast
• Dioramas and terrain: statues, pipes, machinery, alien tech, treasure props

Tips

• Prime black for maximum depth, or grey for a brighter pop
• Spray multiple light passes to build a smooth metallic layer
• Highlight edges with silver or a lighter turquoise metallic
• Add patina with thin green/blue washes in recesses
• Seal with clear coat if you plan heavy masking or handling
