Warhammer - Citadel Colour: Contrast Dreadful Visage 29-65
Contrast paints combine the high flow of a Shade paint with the intense color density and adhesion of a Layer paint, allowing miniatures to be painted quickly and efficiently in a single coat. Dreadful Visage is ideal for eerie, pale greenish to ghostly skin tones and works particularly well for faces, undead, ghosts, demons, monsters, as well as dark or morbid effects. The paint creates fine, natural shading and instantly adds depth and a menacing character to models.
Contrast Paints act as both a base color and shading at the same time, automatically highlighting details and greatly simplifying the painting process. When applied over metallic paints, Dreadful Visage alters the color tone without obscuring the metallic texture, making it suitable for cursed or magical equipment.
For optimal results, light-colored primers are recommended. Wraithbone, White Scar, and Grey Seer are particularly suitable, as they perfectly showcase the transparency and excellent flow properties of Contrast paints.
