Vallejo 77143 True Metallic Metal - Shade - Imperial Gold - Acrylic - 18ml Paint bottle

Add depth, contrast, and atmosphere to your metallic paint schemes for hobby and model building with Vallejo True Metallic Metal – Shade – Imperial Gold – Acrylic – 18ml. Imperial Gold Shade is the satin shadow tone within the True Metallic Metal family, designed to be used over Imperial Gold Base. This darker, non-metallic Imperial Gold tint settles into recesses, panel lines, and deeper areas while allowing the metallic shine of the underlying layer to show through. The result is natural Imperial Gold shading without sacrificing the character of the metal on your miniatures, vehicles, and dioramas.

Within Vallejo’s TMM system, Imperial Gold Shade works together with Imperial Gold Base, Imperial Gold Light, and Imperial Gold Airbrush as one complete chromatic family. The Shade series is specifically created for shading and lining. You follow the BSL logic: Base, Shade, Light. With Imperial Gold Shade you define your shadow structure – where the metal gets darker, where the Imperial Gold tone deepens, and where you want to emphasize weathering or lining. Thinned with water, Imperial Gold Shade creates smooth gradients; used more intensely, it delivers strong definition in panel lines and recesses on your models.

The Shade range has a satin finish that preserves the shine of the metallic layer beneath. Its rich Imperial Gold pigmentation flows beautifully around rivets, into details, and across panels, making your miniatures feel more realistic and dramatic, both on the tabletop and in the display case. It’s ideal for fantasy, sci-fi, and historical projects where you want a coherent Imperial Gold scheme built from the same Base, Shade, Light, and Airbrush tones.

At Most-Models.com you’ll find the full Imperial Gold family within True Metallic Metal for hobby and model building: Imperial Gold Base, Imperial Gold Light, Imperial Gold Shade, and Imperial Gold Airbrush. That means you can always pick exactly the Imperial Gold variant you need, whether you’re focusing on subtle shading, deep panel lines, or bold contrast.
