Model Air Set US Army Air Corps Mediterranean

Enthält:
- 8 Vallejo Model Air Farben

Alle Farben sind lichtecht, alterungsbeständig und hoch pigmentiert. Sie lassen sich leicht auftragen und sind für feinste Details und größere Oberflächen gleichermaßen geeignet.

Model Air ist in praktischen 17ml Plastikfläschchen mit Tropfenzähler verpackt. Das bewahrt die Farbe vor dem Austrocknen. Man kann auch sehr kleine Mengen entnehmen, ohne das der Rest trocken wird und auch die angebrochene Flasche über lange Zeiträume hinweg ohne Verlust benutzen. Der Tropfenzähler iat auch beim Mischen und für die Anwendung mit Airbrush ausgesprochen praktisch.
