About the True Metallic Metal Technique
The True Metallic Metal (TMM) technique replicates authentic metallic surfaces using metallic paints—unlike Non-Metallic Metal (NMM), which simulates metal with flat tones.
TMM emphasizes natural light reflection, depth, and gradient control, delivering visually striking, realistic results with genuine metallic brilliance. Vallejo’s TMM range was developed to simplify this process, offering professional quality finishes through intuitive, consistent color systems.
The True Metallic Metal System
Each of the 20 chromatic families functions as a cohesive color group, while remaining fully compatible for cross-blending to achieve subtle variations, gradients, or light temperature shifts.
Sub-Ranges:
-
BASE: Core metallic tone featuring ultra-fine pigments for smooth, even coverage and a high-quality shine.
-
LIGHT: Brighter, reflective highlights of the Base color for seamless transitions and volume definition.
-
SHADE: Non-metallic, satin-finish washes designed for subtle shadowing while retaining metallic luster.
-
AIRBRUSH: Airbrush-ready metallic Base tones, formulated for even coverage and consistent intensity.
Recommended setup:
-
Nozzle size: 0.3 mm
-
Pressure: 1.8 bar / 26.1 psi
-
Tip: Allow each coat to fully dry for best layering and finish stability.
