Game Colour Extra Opaque Heavy Red (17ml) by Vallejo is a high-coverage acrylic paint designed to provide excellent opacity in just one or two coats. Part of the Extra Opaque range, Heavy Red is formulated with a higher pigment concentration, making it ideal for basecoating miniatures quickly and effectively — even over dark or uneven surfaces.

This bold, rich red features a slightly cool tone, making it perfect for painting everything from crimson cloaks and banners to sci-fi armour, blood-red monsters, and corrupted Chaos wargear. Its matte finish provides a smooth foundation for layering, highlighting, and shading. Whether you're working on fantasy figures, Warhammer armies, or Dungeons & Dragons characters, Heavy Red delivers strong, even coverage with minimal effort.

The Game Colour line is water-based, non-toxic, and compatible with other acrylic paint brands. The 17ml dropper bottle ensures clean, controlled dispensing, minimising waste and making it ideal for use with wet palettes or detail brushes. It's also excellent for underpainting brighter reds or oranges where a solid foundation is needed.
