Warhammer Colour Paint: Base

Warhammer Colour Base paints are high-opacity acrylic paints formulated with a dense pigment count designed to provide a solid, even foundation coat over primed miniatures

Key Characteristics
  • High Opacity: Packed with extra pigment to cover primed plastic, resin, or metal surfaces smoothly in fewer coats than layer paints
  • Classic Foundation: Act as the first step in the traditional Citadel painting method, blocking out the primary colors for armor, skin, weapons, and cloth.
  • Matte Finish: Dries to a flat, controlled matte surface that grips subsequent shades, layer paints, and technical effects.
  • Application Tip: Best applied in two thin, watered-down layers rather than one thick coat to preserve fine sculpted details on the model.
