Warhammer - Citadel Colour: Base Mechanicus Standard Grey 21-24
Base colours are developed for the first, opaque coat of paint on miniatures and offer a high pigment density as well as strong adhesion. Mechanicus Standard Grey is ideal for medium, neutral grey tones and is particularly well suited for armour, vehicles, weapons, terrain as well as industrial or mechanical colour schemes. The paint covers reliably and forms an even foundation for further layering and shading steps.
Base paints can be applied evenly and ensure a clean, stable colour base on which highlights and shading can be shown to their best advantage. Mechanicus Standard Grey is excellently suited as a universal base colour for stone, metal, technology or realistic surfaces with a neutral character.
For optimal results, it is recommended to thin the paint slightly and apply it in one to two even coats. This creates a smooth, opaque base without losing fine details.
