Surface Primers

Vallejo Surface Primers create a reliable foundation for painting miniatures, vehicles, Gundam kits and scale models. This collection includes black, grey, white, tan, green and historically inspired colours, making it easy to choose a starting shade that complements the subject and the colour scheme you have planned.

Vallejo Black Surface Primer is a versatile choice beneath deeper colours and metallic finishes, while German Panzer Grey provides another dark neutral option for vehicles and military subjects. Earth, desert and green primers can establish part of the overall scheme from the beginning, helping the later painting stages feel quicker and more cohesive. That gives you a clean, consistent base for all the colours that follow.

Once your model is prepared, browse Vallejo Game Color for gaming miniatures or Vallejo Mecha Color for robots and science-fiction kits. Our guide to starting miniature painting explains how priming fits into the complete process, from preparing the model to adding the final details.
