What’s in this collection

Inside this collection you’ll find specialized AMMO by MiG Modulation Sets built around iconic color families used in armor and vehicle modeling.

Dunkelgrau Modulation Set – Classic German Panzer grey reimagined with a full light-to-dark gradient. Perfect for highlighting edges and subtle light falloff across flat armor plates.
Red Primer Modulation Set – Ideal for undercoating, weathered primer finishes, and rust-based modulation schemes. Excellent base for Soviet, construction, or sci-fi vehicles.

Each set includes four gradient tones that share the same pigment family, ensuring perfect chromatic consistency through all layers.

Why modulation matters

Modulation transforms a simple paint job into a realistic and dynamic finish. It mimics how real light interacts with large surfaces, emphasizing volume and direction.

Instant depth – Bring out structure and shape even before weathering.
Natural transitions – Step-by-step tonal jumps designed to layer smoothly by airbrush or brush.
Historical accuracy or creative style – Choose authentic schemes or push the look with exaggerated contrast.
Faster workflow – Skip color-mixing trials; each bottle in the set is ready to spray straight from the jar with consistent saturation.

Practical use and pro tips

Use AMMO by MiG Modulation Sets as your base layer before decals and weathering. They’re optimized for both brush and airbrush work.

Airbrush setup – Start with a 1:1 mix of paint and AMMO Acrylic Thinner at around 18–22 PSI. Apply darker tones first, then layer progressively lighter shades on raised areas.
Brush painting – Thin slightly for coverage; add retarder to extend working time. Two thin coats yield smooth, even gradients.
Lighting logic – Think of your model as a 3D object under a sunbeam: top = lightest tone, sides = midtone, undersides = shadow.
Combine sets – Blend Dunkelgrau shadows with Red Primer lights for transitional effects or pre-weathered looks.
Seal smart – After modulation, protect layers with Gloss Varnish, then apply decals and filters. End with matte or satin varnish to lock tones.
Weathering synergy – Once sealed, use AMMO enamel washes, streaking grime, and pigments to push realism further.

Compatible applications

Armor modeling – Panzers, T-34s, Shermans, modern IFVs, and heavy trucks.
Figures – Perfect for uniforms, leather gear, and shaded cloth under light.
Sci-fi & mecha – Ideal for high-contrast mechanical panels.
Dioramas & scenery – Works on buildings, containers, or any large structure that benefits from directional light.
