One of the best whites around.
Great paint and one of the best white paints around. Great application and good thickness with the paint, it covers miniatures well. It can approximately last 15-20 minutes outside of the tube (without wet-palette).

Excellent
I’ve been using Vallejo acrylic paints for miniature painting for quite some time, and they consistently deliver excellent results. The paint has a smooth, creamy consistency straight from the bottle, making it easy to apply with both brushes and airbrushes. It provides great coverage in thin layers, which is ideal for building up colour gradually without obscuring fine details on miniatures. The pigmentation is rich and vibrant, producing crisp, clean colours that dry to a nice matte or satin finish depending on the range. They mix well on a wet palette, allowing for smooth blending, layering, and glazing techniques—perfect for both beginners and experienced hobbyists. One of Vallejo’s standout features is the dropper bottle design. It’s precise, reduces waste, and helps keep the paint fresh over time. The bottles are easy to shake, and the paint doesn’t separate excessively even after sitting for a while, which speaks to its quality. The range of colours is extensive, covering everything from natural tones and military shades to bright fantasy hues, metallics, washes, and mediums. The paints also clean up easily with water, which makes them very user-friendly. Overall, Vallejo acrylics are reliable, versatile, and professional-quality paints that are perfect for miniature painting, model kits, and hobby work. Whether you’re basecoating, highlighting, or blending, they offer excellent control and a beautiful finish every time.

Very convenient, no harsh odour unlike other fillers. Excellent for miniatures
I purchased this for use with my miniature war gaming models which on occasion would still have gaps where the limbs joined on. It work perfect for this so I also decided to use it for some larger project, specifically 3D printed models, where the layer lines might have extremely small gaps that would not goi away without significant sanding or filler. This putty was very easy to apply. I simply added a few blobs (about half a pea size) on the surface I want to level and then used a flat spatula to spread the putty, until it fill all of the gaps. I did not go for a perfect surface, just enough to reduce the amount of post filler sanding. The putty is very strong once set and it easily sanded to a smooth outcome using wet and dry. For the T-Rex I used it like a tube of glue, piping a very thin line around the joins of the neck and arms, then using a damp brush to push and shape it into position. I would also point out that it goes a very long way, making it very good value for money. I have had mine a good few months now, and have unused it once or twice a week, and it shows no signs of running out. Drying time is very quick, 4 hours it is touch try, but for sanding I tend to leave it over night just to ensure that the wet and dry does not break it down.

Excellent product, great service.
I'm a fanatical paint-by-numbers do-er, so I thought I'd try this thinner medium for my acrylic paints rather than use water - it's fantastic! Thins the paint beautifully and keeps it beautifully smooth and spreadable. I love it. It doesn't change the colour of the paint at all and is very easy to use with this dripper bottle. Well done.

Gold star for this gold paint!
I bought this to repaint a faded garden ornament...a gold frog no less! It turned out even better than I expected. Well worth the money. Really pleased with the colour and quality of the paint. Has a shimmer effect too which gives the ornament more texture.

good size for small projects
I bought this acrylic paint thinner to loosen up the small pots of paint that came with a paint-by-numbers set and where some of the colours were not flowing well - some were quite stodgy! I had tried using water to thin the colours but this dilutes the colour on the canvas - I really needed something better. Most craft stores (the "Hobby" one for example) stock thinners but you have to buy large bottles and I only needed a small quantity. This small bottle of Vallejo thinner is perfect for me - I squirt a few drops into the tiny pots and give it a good stir and the problem is solved. It takes a fair few drops - and even a generous squirt in some cases - but the end result is great. Don't be deterred by the fact that the liquid is an opaque milky shade - it does not impact the colour of the paint you are thinning.

The White Stuff
Vallejo paints are excellent. This paint is pre white and excellent for zenith highlighting and general painting. Does everything you would need it to do at a great price. I would love it if they started adding small metal balls to the paints but you can buy these separately if needed. As always, the paint is thick in its cover but thin enough to not deform model features. Recommend for any hobbyists or miniature painting enthusiasts.

Ottimo prodotto per effetto lucido
Prodotto ottimo, non spaventatevi se da liquido tende ad avere una colorazione azzurrina biancastra, da asciutto sarà totalmente trasparente e non influenzerà il colore sottostante. Consiglio più di un'applicazione dove si necessita di una resa molto lucida. Va comunque steso bene col pennello. Un piccolo accorgimento (Io lo uso per miniature di d&d/gdr). Quando finisco di dipingerle con i colori normali alla fine applico uno spray fissante apposito. Sappiate che se lo userete sopra la vernice lucida Lei tornerà opaca. Consiglio quindi di primo mettere lo spray sulla miniatura intera e poi ripassare le parti che si vogliono rendere lucide.
