Vallejo Bloody Red Spray Primer 28.023 (400ml)

Vallejo Fantasy Color Primer: Bloody Red (400ml, Ref. 28.023)

The Vallejo Bloody Red spray primer, Ref. 28.023, is a colored aerosol primer developed for fantasy miniatures, wargaming armies, and scale models that need strong red coverage from the start. It combines basecoat and highly pigmented color in one step, helping you establish a solid red foundation while preserving fine surface detail. Its matt, self-levelling finish makes it especially useful when you want a smooth base for later highlights, shading, and weathering.

Because the Vallejo Bloody Red spray primer is matched to equivalent shades in Vallejo’s Game Color and Model Color ranges, it works well in workflows that mix spray priming with later brush painting. The can includes two nozzles, giving you more control depending on whether you are covering a unit quickly or working on more focused detail areas. For fantasy armies, monsters, and red-heavy color schemes, Ref. 28.023 is a practical way to speed up the first painting stage without sacrificing consistency

How to Use Vallejo Hobby Sprays

1. Shake Well: Shake the can thoroughly for at least one full minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle.
2. Spray Distance: Hold the can about 20–30 cm from the model and apply in short, even passes.
3. Choose the Right Nozzle: Use the low-discharge nozzle for smaller details and the medium-flow nozzle for broader coverage.
4. Clear the Nozzle: After use, turn the can upside down and spray briefly to help keep the nozzle clean.

Pro Tips for Army Speed-Painting

• Red Basecoat Efficiency: This color is especially useful for fantasy armies, monsters, cloaks, armor panels, and red-dominant schemes that benefit from fast, even base coverage.

• Brush-Match Advantage: Since the spray is meant to match equivalent Vallejo bottle colors, it is easier to correct details later with brush paint.

• Surface Prep Matters: For the smoothest finish, avoid spraying in high humidity and keep passes light rather than trying to cover everything in one heavy coat.
