True Metallic Metal (TMM) is a painting technique that aims to represent realistic metallic surfaces using paints with actual metallic pigment - rather than simulating metal with flat colors, as in Non Metallic Metal (NMM).TMM achieves natural reflections and visually striking results with less painterly artifice, preserving the material richness of metal in miniature form. But painting with TMM requires more than just metallic paint. It involves applying traditional principles of light, shadow, and volume - working with blends, transitions, and contrast as you would with any non-metallic surface. Colors specifically formulated for airbrush application. These colors are chromatically matched to the Base colors. They offer a homogeneous finish and excellent color intensity. The are ready to use straight from the bottle, though they can be thinned with Airbrush Thinner for more subtle effects. Excessive thinning may lead to uneven finishes.
