Fluorescents Set by Monument Hobbies: paint characteristics
The Fluorescents Set by Monument Hobbies brings together six fluorescent acrylic colors: red, orange, yellow, green, purple and pink. These colors can be used on their own for a single accent or mixed together to build glowing gradients. Unlike most fluorescent paints on the market, which are usually glossy, this range dries to a matte finish, consistent with the rest of the Pro Acryl line. The paint medium is water-based, the same acrylic base used across the Pro Acryl range. The pigment is formulated at high density, which gives solid opacity from the first coats without building up multiple layers. This matte finish removes the need for an extra varnish step to match these colors with the rest of the miniature.
Using the Fluorescents Set on miniatures and models
These paints apply with a brush or an airbrush without requiring heavy thinning. They thin evenly with water or an acrylic medium for glazes or more transparent filters. With a brush, several thin coats give a more even result than a single thick one. As with most fluorescents, the vibrancy of the colors increases when the paint is applied over a light base coat, white or very light grey. This choice of preparation directly affects the final result on the miniature, in particular for lighting effects, glowy bits, or synthwave-inspired color schemes. This compatibility with both techniques makes the set easy to fit into an existing painting routine.
Bottles and packaging of Monument Hobbies paints
Each color comes in a 22ml bottle, for a total of 132ml across the six colors in the set. This format covers several miniature or model projects without immediate dilution. This capacity is enough to plan ahead for several painting sessions before a refill is needed. The bottles use Monument Hobbies' no-clog twist cap, which works as both a dropper and a screw cap. A glass agitator is pre-loaded in each bottle to help remix the pigment before use.
