Vallejo 77146 True Metallic Metal - Shade - Ruby Red - 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 – Ruby Red – Acrylic – 18ml. Ruby Red Shade is the satin shadow tone within the True Metallic Metal family, designed to be used over Ruby Red Base. This darker, non-metallic Ruby Red 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 Ruby Red shading without sacrificing the character of the metal on your miniatures, vehicles, and dioramas.

Within Vallejo’s TMM system, Ruby Red Shade works together with Ruby Red Base, Ruby Red Light, and Ruby Red 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 Ruby Red Shade you define your shadow structure – where the metal gets darker, where the Ruby Red tone deepens, and where you want to emphasize weathering or lining. Thinned with water, Ruby Red 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 Ruby Red 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 Ruby Red scheme built from the same Base, Shade, Light, and Airbrush tones.

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