Revell colors - proven and perfected for decades

For a detailed and creative painting of a model, the use of colors is one of the most important steps in model making and has a direct effect on the final result. Especially with regard to:

  • the appearance
  • the level of detail
  • the authenticity
  • the originality
  • the durability of the model

Thanks to decades of experience, Revell colors are specially adapted to the requirements of plastic model making so that model makers all over the world can always achieve excellent results. Great importance is attached to ensuring that components, paints and other Revell accessories such as thinners and primers are compatible with each other. This means that everyone, whether beginner or professional, achieves a perfect result and every model becomes a special eye-catcher.

Mini

88 colour tones – Made in Germany

The current Revell portfolio comprises 88 different color shades: from basic colors to metallic colors such as silver and gold and special shades such as signal color like Luminous orange. Naturally, Revell color can also be used for airbrush guns when diluted accordingly.

If the right shade for a truly authentic replica of the original is not available, Revell color can be mixed together without any problems. The required mixing ratio is exactly stated in the Revell building instructions for each model.

Tips for beginners:

  • The parts should be thoroughly cleaned from dirt, fingerprints and grease with soapy water before painting. Only then can the paint adhere optimally.
  • Before painting, it should be carefully considered how the part can be held most sensibly. To do this, it should remain in the casting frame or on the casting branch. Revell retaining clips can also be used for this purpose.
  • color can be tested, mixed and compared particularly well on white yoghurt cups
  • Alternatively, a colour test can be made on the inside of the parts that will not be visible later
  • Do not stir the colors with a brush but with toothpicks or similar tools
  • Brush strokes, which are painted slightly overlapping and thus wet-on-wet, produce a more uniform overall picture

Aqua Color – the colors for the beginner

Revell Aqua Color is the water-soluble paint series from Revell. It is odourless, non-flammable and environmentally friendly. This makes the inks particularly suitable for beginners, as they can be painted over after just 60 minutes drying time. After 2 to 3 hours the paint is completely dry.

The colors can be easily diluted with water, mixed and combined as desired, giving model makers even more design options, such as weathering, the artificial ageing of models. Since fresh paint can be easily washed out of brushes and clothes with water, Aqua Color is also very suitable for children. In addition, the paint cans are particularly stable and tilt resistant due to their angular shape.

With Revell Aqua Color Mix and its special drying retarder, all Aqua Color colors can also be applied with an airbrush without any problems.   

Email Color – the colors for the professional

Revell Email Color is the series of synthetic resin varnishes for the modelling professional that has been tried and tested for decades. They produce a colour image that lasts for years and can be used to paint a wide variety of surfaces. In addition to scratch and impact resistance, experienced model builders achieve particularly beautiful gloss effects with these paints. Even on white surfaces, the paints provide excellent coverage and can be painted over after 4 to 6 hours of drying. Complete drying is achieved after 24 hours.
