Pro Acryl Metallic Set by Monument Hobbies: a metallic acrylic paint with ultra-fine pigments
The Pro Acryl Metallic Set by Monument Hobbies brings together 9 bottles dedicated to metallic tones, including 8 colors and a metallic medium. Unlike the matte paints in the rest of the Pro Acryl range, these colors use ultra-fine metallic flakes, which limits the grainy effect sometimes seen with other metallic paints and gives a smoother result once dry. Each 22 ml bottle keeps the features common to the Pro Acryl range: a glass mixing agitator and a no-clog twist-top cap. The Metallic Medium can turn any standard Pro Acryl paint into a custom metallic shade. Monument Hobbies positions this range as a complement to the matte paints in the rest of the collection, not as an alternative.
Using the Pro Acryl Metallic Set with a brush or an airbrush
The fine, fluid consistency of these paints allows direct brush application without heavy dilution, while keeping good coverage. They can also be used with an airbrush without clogging from the flakes, thanks to their fine grain. The Metallic Medium mixes with an existing Pro Acryl paint, in a proportion adjusted to the metallic intensity wanted, to create a shade not found in the standard range. As with the rest of the range, dilution remains possible to adjust the consistency according to the equipment used.
Eight metallic colors and a medium to customize a Monument Hobbies paint
The set covers a range of warm tones, Bronze, Light Bronze, Copper, Bright Gold, and Rich Gold, and cooler tones, White Gold, Silver, and Dark Silver. This range allows common metallic elements on a miniature to be painted, such as armor, a weapon, or scenery details, with several shades of metal warmth. The Pro Acryl Metallic Set suits people who already have a base set of Pro Acryl paints and want to add metallic tones or customize their own mixes with the included medium, without buying an extra bottle.
