Vallejo Sterling Silver True Metallic Paint Set

True Metallic Metal (TMM) is a painting technique that uses paints containing real metallic pigment to represent metallic surfaces with natural reflections. Unlike Non Metallic Metal (NMM), which relies on flat colors, TMM preserves the authentic visual qualities of metal.

Achieving effective TMM results involves more than applying metallic paint. The process uses traditional painting principles such as light, shadow, and volume, along with careful blending, transitions, and contrast.

This set includes four paints designed to support a consistent workflow based on the BSL (Base – Shade – Light) approach. This method allows painters to build definition, depth, and lighting while maintaining the natural shine of metallic pigments.

• Uses real metallic pigments for natural reflections
• Supports light, shadow, and volume techniques
• Follows the BSL (Base – Shade – Light) painting method
• Includes four paints for a structured TMM workflow
