Citadel Layer: Dark Reaper

Product Information

And finally a small selection of technical paints. I never used the primer but the flow improver and sealer are both pretty good.

The last five colors in this list are not usually available in acrylic color, and are generally only available in artist's

This paint is smooth, from beginning to end. It’s smooth coming out of the bottle, smooth when you thin it with water and smooth when you apply it to a model. The above images show my attempt at base coating without primer, to show A, how smooth the end result is. and B, the opacity of this paint. Reaper Miniatures operate out of Texas in the US and produce their own models in Metal, Resin & Plastic, their own paints, wargames, tabletop games and even have a huge yearly convention – ReaperCon. I’m not sure why these are referred to as “clear”. When applied, enough coats will give an opaque layer. They are very thin and act like dense inks. Clear Red However, and this is negativ, but not so as to justify not buying them (for me at least): the nozzle of the bottles is a bit smaller that the other brands, and tends to clog up more than my vallejos. Paint the doors, sign, awning and roof with Caliban Green. Paint the ribs of the awning with Rakarth Flesh.

These are now my go-to paints for everything. When I set out to identify the best paints for miniatures I never expected to find a result this good. Known Simply as Master Series Paints or MSP, these are the base set of colours from Reaper. These are their thinner (think: “smoother” flow) line of paints. They are marketed in Triads, meaning each colour hue comes with 2 partners. A triad contains A darker colour, a mid-tone and a highlight. Eye Lenses – Paint the full lens in Wazdakka Red then, leaving an edge of red, paint Evil Sunz Scarlet inside.Skin, as a substitute for this one. If you want more warmth, mix 50/50 Tanned Skin 9044 with Golden Now with my glaze of Pallid Wych Flesh ready, I go over the raised muscle of the skin to make it stand out against the rest of the flesh, but not enough to make it too much of a bright white color to overwhelm the Rakarth Flesh.

Optional) Sponge Chipping: Weather the cars by dabbing a torn piece of foam in a dark grey, like Eshin Grey or Skavenblight Dinge, then dabbing this against the model (do this before you paint the lights). For the taxi, airbrush with a basic flat yellow, such as Tamiya XF-3 Flat Yellow (my favorite) or Phalanx Yellow (meh). With the next guy up, I had really gotten glazing down. Unlike the model above I took shots of this guy in stages so you can see how the glazing performs. This above is after only one layer of Reaper’s Fire Orange. I really wanted to try out a rusty coloured scheme for my Plague Marines and this was definitely heading in teh right direction. The glaze is now subtly shifting the overall armour colour to the orange tone I wanted, whilst still keeping the under painted cool blue layer in the shadows. Airbrush wise these paints worked absolutely perfectly, with only a touch of Vallejo Airbrush Thinner for every 4-5 drops of MSP gave a really nice airbrush consistency.If anyone here has followed my painting progress, you’ll know I’m not the best at applying base layers. Or any layers for that matter without terribly visible brushstrokes. Here, the paint has done most of the work for me, I’m not kidding. I just slapped it across the mini and let it settle itself down flat. This is possibly the best brush-on base coat I’ve ever done. The first thing we’re going to look at is actually the last thing I painted before I started writing the review. But I didn’t want to waste my time painting up a miniature in this way if I wasn’t confident the paint could do it. After a few weeks with these paints. I was certain this next bit would be easy. I want the wings to be much more muted and less saturated, so I start by washing them a few times with Nuln Oil, doing more layers toward the base of the wings, and going lighter toward the edges, to give the wings a bit of a fade as they go out. All the paintings are carefully designed by our own designers. Dark Color follows the trend to update the most popular pictures daily to make you catch the trend timely. Aged Bone was also applied to the horns, which again has given a smooth layer, leaving the nuances of the under painted layer showing through.

The paint isn’t advertised to work without primer, but I’ve expressed many times that primer is not a necessary ingredient for painting miniatures. It’s just better at binding to plastic and it’s better for the paint to adhere too. If you are not going to handle your models during or after painting, primer is just an extra layer of paint between the final coat and the model’s details.Within the Core Colours, there are Metallics, Clear Paints, Liner Paints & Washes (though no washes are part of ore Colours set 1 unfortunately).
