Vallejo 77151 True Metallic Metal - Shade - Sapphire Blue - 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 – Sapphire Blue – Acrylic – 18ml. Sapphire Blue Shade is the satin shadow tone within the True Metallic Metal family, designed to be used over Sapphire Blue Base. This darker, non-metallic Sapphire Blue 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 Sapphire Blue shading without sacrificing the character of the metal on your miniatures, vehicles, and dioramas.

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

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