Fast-Track Your Batch Painting with Death Guard Green Spray
Basecoating dozens of infantry models, bloated daemon engines, and transport vehicles by hand with a standard brush is one of the most tedious bottlenecks in miniature hobbying. Applying two thin coats across an entire army takes hours and often leaves faint brush marks on flat armor plates like vehicle sides and shoulder pads [1].
Death Guard Green Spray solves this production delay completely [1]. Engineered specifically for scale modeling by Games Workshop, this 400ml aerosol acts as an all-in-one primer and basecoat [1]. In just a few controlled passes, you can coat entire combat patrols in the definitive sickly, muted olive-drab hue of Nurgle’s chosen legion—ready for shading and weathering within minutes [1].
Why Death Guard Green Spray Belongs on Your Workbench
1. True 2-in-1 Primer and Basecoat Performance
Unlike standard automotive sprays that go on thick and obscure sharp angles, Death Guard Green Spray is engineered specifically for 28mm to 32mm scale miniatures [1]. It etches lightly into raw plastic and resin to create a durable, scratch-resistant key that holds subsequent acrylic layers tightly, eliminating the need to spray black or grey primer first [1].
2. Seamless Integration with the Citadel Colour System
There is nothing more frustrating than fixing a mold-line slip or painting outside the lines and discovering your spray basecoat does not match your pot paint. This aerosol formula matches Citadel’s Death Guard Green (Base) 12ml pot identically [1]. Clean-ups, panel corrections, and edge restorations blend into the rest of the model with zero visible shade disparity [1].
3. Micro-Fine Atomization for Preserved Surface Detail
Citadel spray nozzles are calibrated to dispense ultra-fine paint particles in a controlled, conical mist [1]. This ensures that riveted armor plates, recessed flesh tears, chains, and pestilent boils remain crisp and sharp, preventing the clumping or “fuzzy” finish caused by generic spray paints [1].

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to apply a black or grey primer before using Death Guard Green Spray?
No. Death Guard Green Spray is formulated as a combined primer and basecoat [1]. It adheres directly to bare plastic, metal, and resin, meaning you can skip the undercoat step entirely and start painting immediately [1].
Does the spray color match the Death Guard Green pot paint exactly?
Yes. The spray is matched directly to the Citadel Base range formula, allowing you to use Death Guard Green from the pot to fix minor mistakes, cover assembly lines, or paint sub-assemblies without any noticeable color boundary [1].
What is the best way to get a smooth finish without texture?
For best results, warm the can in a bowl of lukewarm tap water for 5 minutes, shake vigorously for a full 2 minutes, and spray outdoors in dry conditions (between 15°C–25°C / 59°F–77°F with low humidity) [1]. Apply 2–3 short, sweeping passes 8 to 12 inches away from the models rather than holding the nozzle down continuously [1].
