About product

Magenta — a paint for drybrushing from AMMO of Mig Jimenez

The product carries the name of the shade Magenta. It is a paint from the assortment set aside for the drybrushing technique. It is not a kit and not an accessory to a model. The name of the shade is the only piece of data in the name of the product.

Why have saturated shades in a palette too

Drybrushing is often associated only with light gray and sand. A saturated shade, however, has a different place in a palette: it is reached for not in order to bring out edges by itself but in order to shift another shade. Mixing a small proportion of a saturated color into a highlight tone changes its character without changing its lightness, and the edges then do not look chalky and dead. That is precisely the most common complaint against drybrushing, and it is dealt with in exactly this way.

How to work with mixing

  • Mix on a palette, not directly in the bottle; you will not repeat the ratio on the next model anyway.
  • Start with a genuinely minimal proportion of the saturated color, as its influence in drybrushing is unexpectedly strong.
  • Mix only paints of the same range and chemistry; products with a different binder curdle each other.
  • Try the mixed tone on a leftover piece of sprue before you touch the model.

Use on its own

A saturated shade can also be used directly, if the model will take such an accent — stylized machines, fantasy and sci-fi subjects, sports and competition machines or decorative parts of a diorama. Here too the basic rule holds: a minimum of paint on the brush and building the effect up in layers.

Who it is for

For modelers who mix their own highlight tones and for anyone who works with strongly colored subjects.

Keep the paint tightly closed and out of the reach of children, and ventilate while working. You will find the instructions for thinning and processing on the manufacturer's packaging.

FAQ

Yes, but only with paints of the same range and the same chemistry, and always on a palette, not in the bottle. Products with a different binder curdle each other.

A small proportion of a saturated color shifts the character of a highlight tone without changing its lightness. The edges then do not look chalky, which is the most common complaint against drybrushing.

The name of the shade is Magenta. Look for the number according to a color standard on the packaging and compare the shade on a test sample.

Start with a genuinely minimal proportion. In drybrushing a saturated color has an unexpectedly great influence, and the ratio can be increased gradually but not reduced.
