Vallejo Xpress Color Templar White
Paint pale cloth, soft highlights, ghostly skin, and bright fantasy details with fast, subtle white contrast.
Vallejo Xpress Color Templar White is a transparent matt acrylic color designed to flow naturally over miniature surfaces, creating light raised areas, soft mid-tones, and delicate shadows in the recesses with a single expressive layer. It is ideal for fast tabletop painting, white clothing, spectral effects, pale creatures, and clean highlight work. Vallejo recommends applying Xpress Color over a white or grey primed or painted surface for best results.
What it does
- Creates a soft templar white tone with gentle contrast and definition.
- Works especially well over white or grey primer, where the color naturally separates into raised highlights, mid-tones, and shaded recesses.
- Excellent for white robes, tabards, angelic armor, pale cloth, ghostly effects, bone details, feathers, fur, and fantasy characters.
- 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 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
- White robes, cloaks, tabards, banners, and templar-style clothing
- Angels, paladins, clerics, ghosts, spirits, and holy fantasy characters
- Pale fur, feathers, bone details, skulls, horns, and parchment
- Soft white shading, winter schemes, snow-touched details, and clean highlights
- Fast tabletop painting for Warhammer, D&D, Pathfinder, skirmish games, and board game miniatures
ChalkyDot Tip
Use Templar White over a white or zenithal prime when you want white areas to keep their brightness while still gaining soft shadows. For robes, tabards, and angelic armor, add a final edge highlight with pure white or off-white to make the raised folds stand out cleanly on the tabletop.
