Vallejo 72212 Non Metallic Metal – Set of 8 Acrylic Paints for Non Metallic Metal (NMM) Effects

Vallejo 72212 Non Metallic Metal is a professional set of eight acrylic paints specifically designed for achieving the popular Non Metallic Metal (NMM) effects used in modeling, that is, imitating metallic surfaces without the use of metallic paints. The set has been developed by the renowned brand Vallejo, recognized as a global leader in the production of model paints, ensuring top quality and consistent colors.

The Vallejo 72212 Non Metallic Metal set is an excellent choice for modelers seeking to enhance the artistic value of their works. The NMM technique allows for exceptionally realistic light and shadow and shine effects, unachievable with classic metallic pigments. Thanks to the high pigmentation, the paints are easy to apply, dry quickly, and adhere excellently to both plastic and resin or metal surfaces.

I recommend this set to both advanced miniature painters wishing to experiment with optical effects and intermediate modelers looking to elevate the realism of their work. The difficulty level in fully mastering the NMM technique is 4/5, but the included paints and step-by-step instructions will make learning this impressive technique much easier.
