Vallejo Game Color: Dark Green
A classic deep, natural dark green for minis—perfect for military cloth, forest creatures, leather mixes, and gritty terrain details when you want a grounded, realistic green.
 
What it does
Water-based acrylic designed for fantasy & wargaming miniatures.
Dries fast and forms a self-leveling layer that preserves fine details.
Matte finish and easy blending with the newer Game Color formulation (smoother flow / more opaque / high pigment saturation).
Strong adhesion on common hobby surfaces (plastic/resin/metal) and cleans up with water.
 
How to use
Prime your model first (any primer colour depending on how bright you want the green).
Apply 2 thin coats for best coverage and smoothness.
Shade recesses with a dark wash, then re-layer Dark Green on raised areas for clean definition.
 
Best for
Camo cloth, straps, pouches, cloaks
Monsters/creatures, forest & swamp themes
Terrain and basing: mossy rocks, plants, woodland props
 
ChalkyDot Tip: For an instant “realistic” green, highlight Dark Green by mixing a touch of Karak Stone / bone into it—small, warm highlights make the green look sun-faded and natural instead of cartoony.
