About Vallejo 77114 Dusken Green:

Dusken Green is a muted, cool metallic highlight tone designed to brighten BASE metallic colours in the green–olive spectrum. Its ultra-fine pigment provides smooth transitions, gentle light accents, and crisp edge highlights with minimal visible brush texture.

It excels on armour plates, machinery casings, painted metals, fantasy equipment, sci-fi plating, and surfaces requiring a natural, understated metallic glow.

About Vallejo True Metallic Metal (TMM):

True Metallic Metal (TMM) uses genuine metallic pigments to achieve natural shine and realistic reflective behaviour on miniature surfaces. Unlike NMM, TMM preserves an authentic metallic appearance while still supporting classical shading and highlighting principles.

The range follows the BSL method (Base – Shade – Light):

• BASE: high-coverage metallic base colours.
• SHADE: satin washes for defining shadows.
• LIGHT: bright metallic highlight tones — including Dusken Green.
• AIRBRUSH: airbrush-ready metallic BASE colours.

This system provides a cohesive approach to building realistic metallic depth, subtle reflections, and convincing three-dimensional volume while maintaining the brilliance of true metal pigment.

Usage tips:

• Shake thoroughly before use.
• Apply over BASE metallic greens or olive tones.
• Use fine brushes for controlled edge highlights and reflected-light accents.
• Thin with water or Vallejo acrylic thinner for smooth blending.
• For airbrush use: 0.3 mm needle, approx. 2 bar (29 psi).
