Vallejo Xpress Color Space Grey 

Paint cool sci-fi armor, urban ruins, cold shadows, and atmospheric fantasy details with fast, smooth grey contrast.
Vallejo Xpress Color Space Grey is a transparent matt acrylic color designed to flow naturally over miniature surfaces, creating lighter raised areas, saturated mid-tones, and deeper shadows in the recesses with a single expressive layer. It is ideal for fast tabletop painting, cool grey schemes, mechanical details, stone textures, and shadow glazing.

 

What it does

  • Creates a cool space grey tone with instant contrast and depth.
  • Works especially well over white or grey primer, where the color naturally separates into highlights, mid-tones, and darker recesses.
  • Excellent for sci-fi armor, urban bases, stone ruins, mechanical parts, cold cloth, weapons, vehicles, and atmospheric shadow effects.
  • Can be used for glazes, filters, soft shading, contouring, and blending transitions.
  • Can be mixed with other Xpress Colors or diluted with Xpress Medium to create softer grey tones and custom shades.

 

How to use

  • Prime or basecoat the miniature in white or light grey.
  • Shake the bottle well before use.
  • Apply with a brush and let the paint flow naturally into the recesses.
  • Avoid overworking the surface while drying to keep the contrast smooth and clean.
  • For softer or more controlled results, dilute with Vallejo Xpress Medium.
  • It can also be used with an airbrush for tinting, filters, and smooth color effects.

 

Best for

  • Sci-fi armor, helmets, shoulder pads, panels, and mechanical parts
  • Urban bases, concrete, stone ruins, dungeon walls, and rubble
  • Cold robes, cloaks, hoods, leather, and shadowed cloth
  • Weapons, shields, vehicles, machinery, and weathered equipment
  • Fast tabletop painting for Warhammer, D&D, Pathfinder, skirmish games, and board game miniatures

 

ChalkyDot Tip

Use Space Grey over a white or zenithal prime for fast cold shadows on armor, ruins, and machinery. For sci-fi panels or urban terrain, highlight the raised edges with pale grey or blue-grey; for deeper atmosphere, add a second thin layer into the lowest recesses and shadowed areas.
