Vallejo

Vallejo Xpress Color

The bottles are made out of thin plastic
Feels a bit flimsy
Vibrant colours
These paint are bright and vibrant straight out of the bottle.
Vallejo's "one coat solution"
These paints are formulated to create highlights, mid tones and shadows with just one coat of paint
Behaves like a normal acrylic paint
Unlike the Army Painter Speedpaint range which (to me at least) behaves like water colours, these paints behave like acrylic paint
