Enhance the true metallic shine on your miniatures with Vallejo TMM Beetle Green 77133.

Beetle Green (77133) is an intense metallic green with an emerald/teal cast, perfect for ornamentation, trims, tech plates and organic-inspired details.

The True Metallic Metal (TMM) range from Vallejo is designed to deliver a genuine metal finish with precise brush control and can be thinned for airbrush use. Its high pigment load and ultra-fine metallic particles ensure even coverage, crisp reflections and excellent detail preservation—ideal for fantasy miniatures, vehicles and diorama work.

Main features:

• Real metallic finish: high metallic pigment content for a convincing, consistent shine.
• Ultra-fine particle size: won’t obscure details; perfect for panels, rivets and fine textures.
• Fast-drying, smooth coat: excellent self-levelling for clean transitions and sharp edges.
• Versatile for TMM techniques: ideal for basecoats, highlights, edge highlights and polished effects.
• 18 ml dropper bottle: precise dosing and improved long-term paint preservation.

Why choose True Metallic Metal:

If you’re aiming for realism and control, TMM provides a true metallic sheen without relying on NMM. Build from deep metallic bases to intense reflections and specular highlights with repeatable results across painting projects in sci-fi, historical and fantasy settings. Pair it with hobby accessories (detail brushes, wet palettes and varnishes) for a professional finish.

Usage recommendations:

• Shake thoroughly before use to fully disperse the metallic particles.
• Prime the surface; for extra depth use a black or dark grey base. For bright, cool candy effects, start from a light base.
• Apply thin coats and allow each layer to dry; create a polished look with targeted highlights using a fine brush.
• Thin slightly for airbrush or metallic glazes; tone the metal by mixing with inks or washes.
• Seal with varnish (matte, satin or gloss) to protect and control the final finish.

Give your projects a professional edge with Vallejo and the True Metallic Metal range. Achieve a convincing metallic finish that enhances realism and surface detail on your miniatures and scale models.
