Pro Acryl Expansion Set 3 by Monument Hobbies: a high-pigment acrylic formula
The Pro Acryl Expansion Set 3 by Monument Hobbies brings together 9 bottles of acrylic paint for painting miniatures and models. This range uses a higher pigment concentration than common hobby paints, which reduces the number of coats needed for an even tone. Each 22 ml bottle includes a glass mixing agitator, reducing corrosion risks compared with metal balls, and a twist-top cap designed to keep the paint from drying at the nozzle. Monument Hobbies designs this range with an approach closer to artist-grade acrylic paints, rather than following the conventional hobby paint model.
Using the Pro Acryl Expansion Set 3 with a brush or an airbrush
The fluid consistency of these paints allows direct brush application without heavy dilution, while keeping good coverage. Dilution is needed for airbrush use, adjusted according to the equipment used. Drying gives a matte finish, which limits reflections on painted areas and makes sculpted details easier to read. As the paint dries quickly once out of the bottle, using a wet palette keeps color mixes workable for longer on the work surface.
Nine colors to add nuance to a Monument Hobbies paint collection
This set brings together colors not found in the Pro Acryl Base Set or Expansion Set 1: earthy tones such as Dark Golden Brown and Burnt Sienna, cool tones such as Blue Black, Grey Blue, and Turquoise, and more specific colors such as Bright Pale Green, Pale Yellow, Black Green, and Faded Plum. These shades help refine mixes already made with the base range, particularly for natural elements such as wood, earth, or foliage. The Pro Acryl Expansion Set 3 suits people who already have a base set of Pro Acryl paints and want more specific colors to vary their mixes.
