Whether you’re a seasoned painter or just starting your journey, these model paints provide the perfect tools for achieving a professional finish.

Citadel Base Paints: The Foundation of Your Masterpiece

Citadel Base Paints are specifically formulated for excellent coverage, providing a solid, opaque first coat over your primer. Their rich pigment density ensures that even vibrant colors will cover dark undercoats effectively, saving you time and effort. Each 12ml pot contains a high-quality, water-based formula that dries to a smooth matt finish.

These base paints are essential for laying down the primary colors of your miniatures. Popular choices include the iconic Macragge Blue for Ultramarines, the deep Abaddon Black, vibrant Mephiston Red, or the earthy Zandri Dust. For greens, consider Waaagh! Flesh or Caliban Green, while metallics like Leadbelcher provide a strong metallic base. Flesh tones like Bugman’s Glow and Rakarth Flesh offer excellent starting points for skin. With Celestra Grey and Corax White, you can establish crisp light tones.

Citadel Layer Paints: Building Depth and Detail

Once your base colors are established, Citadel Layer Paints come into play. These paints feature a slightly thinner consistency and finer pigment, making them ideal for building up layers, blending, and creating crisp highlights. They are designed to be applied in multiple thin coats, gradually building intensity and creating smooth transitions between shades. Like their Base counterparts, Layer paints are a water-based formula and dry to a beautiful smooth matt finish, perfect for showcasing intricate details.

The layering technique is crucial for adding realism and depth to your models, from the subtle folds of cloth to the sharp edges of armor. Enhance your Ultramarines with Altdorf Guard Blue, brighten your reds with Evil Sunz Scarlet and Wild Rider Red, or add vibrant green highlights with Warpstone Glow and Moot Green. For skin tones, Cadian Fleshtone and Kislev Flesh are indispensable. Neutrals like Eshin Grey, Dawnstone, and Administratum Grey are perfect for adding subtle highlights to black or dark grey areas, while Ushabti Bone and Pallid Wych Flesh are excellent for bone and light fabrics. Even bright yellows like Yriel Yellow are available to create stunning effects. Each 12ml pot provides ample paint for countless highlighting opportunities.
