When you need to paint multiple figures in a fast way, Xpress Color is the ideal choice, these matte colours are specifically formulated to paint miniatures in a fast and easy way.

The main characteristics are its excellent capillarity that allows the color to flow easily over the miniature surface, settling on all the reliefs and more intensely in the crevices of the figure, creating a contrast effect with a single layer of paint.

It’s recommended to apply Xpress Color on a white or grey primed or painted surface. The color will create light areas on the reliefs, saturated mid-tones and intense shadows in the crevices of the figure.

Like all Vallejo products, they are very versatile and can be applied over any color in the range to create soft shading and contouring effects, to create glazes or filters and to blend transitions between color tones.

Xpress Color can be mixed together, or can be diluted with Xpress Medium to modify or create new shades.

A yellow-green high-contrast paint

This is a great yellow/green high-contrast paint. Declaring that it's "troll skin" doesn't really mean anything because trolls are imaginary and probably diverse, so there's no "correct" shade for troll skin, but as a pale reptilian skin tone, this is perfect. It's not as "putrid" or green as Plague Green from Vallejo Xpress Color.

In my experience, Vallejo Xpress Color paints are more viscous than some of the Citadel Contrast paints. You may find it necessary to water the paint down a little before applying it to your model.

The high-contrast nature of the paint manifests as usual: deep recess regions are dark while peaks and flat regions are brighter. Your paint process was probably something like: paint one thin coat, then dry, second thin coat, then dry, and then cover with a black or brown wash. With Vallejo Xpress Color, it's just this: paint one thin coat. That's it. The paint is viscous enough to only require one coat, and the wash step is built-in.

Vallejo Xpress Color comes in a dropper-style bottle, which I personally find messy and inconvenient compared to Citadel's pots, but I guess some people prefer the dropper bottle because it's usually a point of excitement in other reviews I've read.
