AMMO by Mig Jiménez – DIO Drybrush Colors: Realism at Your Fingertips

When it comes to highlighting raised details, simulating textures, and bringing miniature surfaces to life, few techniques are as effective and rewarding as drybrushing. And within this method, the DIO Drybrush line by AMMO by Mig Jiménez has become a must-have for modelers of all skill levels seeking striking results without complicated mixes or trial-and-error.

This collection was designed from scratch with a very specific goal: to provide an acrylic paint ready to use for drybrushing, with the perfect consistency, pigmentation, and behavior to make the technique work flawlessly right from the first application. Thanks to its tailored formulation, every stroke enhances details, textures, edges, and surface reliefs with precision and control—delivering the visual depth and contrast that sets great scale models apart.

What Makes This Line Special?

The first thing you'll notice is the paint's unique texture. Unlike other acrylic paints that are more fluid or made for airbrushing, DIO Drybrush paints feature a creamy, dense consistency that clings to your brush without dripping or overloading. This makes it easy to control how much pigment is released, helping you achieve subtle highlights or bold accents as needed.

The second highlight is the wide range of colors. This line was developed specifically with dioramas, vehicles, and figures in mind. You'll find everything from rust tones, olive greens, and dusty browns to metallic shades, weathering colors, and even transparent tones for atmospheric effects. The themed sets offer ready-to-use combinations for metallic finishes, urban surfaces, camouflage, and natural terrain—saving you time and guesswork.

Easy to Use, Smartly Packaged Drybrush Paint

Each DIO Drybrush bottle contains 40ml of high-quality paint—plenty for multiple projects—and features a wide-mouth opening that fits all brush sizes. There’s no need for extra containers: simply dip your dry brush, wipe the excess, and apply. It’s a clean, efficient system designed for practicality.

Plus, the paint is water-based, non-toxic, odorless, and easy to clean. That means safer, more comfortable sessions, especially when working indoors or for extended periods of time.

Perfect for Reliefs, Figures, and Dioramas

Drybrushing is an essential technique for adding depth and realism to any project. Whether you’re working on metal panels, weathered cloth, aged wood, cracked stone, or rivets on a tank, this technique brings those textures to life.

For diorama builders, military modelers, and figure painters, DIO Drybrush paints offer a powerful tool to add wear, contrast, and visual impact to your work—quickly and with control.
