SVC05 Matt Blue for Sofubi Figures by Mr.Hobby

Mr.Hobby SVC05 Water-Based Sofubi Color in Matt Blue is targeted at figure painters seeking a subdued, matte finish on soft PVC pieces. The compact 18ml bottle is handy for touch ups and controlled painting sessions, helping to preserve fine sculpted lines.

Benefits of Using Water-Based Sofubi Paint

Water-based Sofubi paint is favoured for its straightforward thinning and easy brush cleaning with water. It produces lower vapour than solvent options, which makes it more comfortable for indoor hobby work. The matt blue hue sits well under washes and drybrushing to add subtle contrast.

Practical Application Advice

Apply in thin, even layers and allow full drying between coats to avoid pooling. Use small synthetic or sable brushes for precision, and keep the workspace ventilated even when using water-based products. Test techniques on a spare piece before committing to the final model.

Is this paint okay for airbrushing?

SVC05 can be thinned for airbrush use but always follow recommended thinning ratios and strain the paint to avoid clogging. Test on scrap first to dial in spray settings.

How quickly does it dry?

Drying time varies with coat thickness and humidity; thin coats typically feel dry to the touch within 15-30 minutes and cure fully over several hours.

What is the best way to clean brushes?

Clean brushes with warm water and mild soap while the paint is still wet. For dried paint, use a brush cleaner formulated for water-based paints and reshape the bristles after cleaning.

Will the colour change under varnish?

A clear gloss or satin coat can deepen the colour slightly; test a small area to confirm the final appearance before sealing the whole figure.
