Gun Metal
The Gun Metal spray is the latest installment in the successful line of Colour Primers from The Army Painter. The Gun Metal is a rich and dark metal and is nothing but the perfect basecoat for Knights and dark Sci-Fi & Fantasy. Especially vehicles will benefit tremendously from this spray – and a worn and battle scarred look is easily achieved by applying Warpaints colours onto the matt surface. We recommend Quickshade: DARK Tone or the Warpaints: Dark tone ink for the perfect shading.
Alien Purple
A rich purple suited for a multitude of purposes. Perfect for Tyranids, Dark Elves, Dark Eldar, any Chaos and also to spice up ordinary races - like humans - Imperial Guard or Empire.
Purple is not a standard colour and therefore it will make your army highly unique and striking to behold. Recommended DARK Tone QS.
Barbarian Flesh
This Colour Primer is great for spraying miniatures with exposed skin, saving you loads of time. Superb with Celts, hordes of Viking beserks and Barbarians in general. Especially Ogre Kingdoms would make great use of this colour, but also Beastmen and Skaven would benefit, making their fur more realistic and enabling you to knock out large regiments very fast.
