The Army Painter – John Blanche Masterclass: Shadow Thorn – WP4107P
Colour: Deep cool blue-green
Finish: Matte
Contents: 18 ml
The Army Painter John Blanche Masterclass Shadow Thorn is a deep, cool blue-green acrylic paint for miniature painting. The colour is ideal for dark base colours, nocturnal shadows and atmospheric grimdark colour schemes where you want to retain more colour than with pure black.
Dark shadow colour with blue-green depth
Shadow Thorn sits between dark blue and deep green-blue and works excellently as a base or shadow shade. The colour gives dark areas a cool, atmospheric appearance without them becoming completely black and flat.
This makes the shade particularly suitable for armour, fabrics and creatures that require a somber yet colourful finish.
Ideal for armour, fabrics and night effects
The colour is highly versatile for dark armour, cloaks, uniforms, machines and technical components. Shadow Thorn also forms an excellent base for nocturnal scenery, deep water and supernatural creatures.
On cold skin or monsters, the shade can also be used to give the deepest shadow areas extra colour and atmosphere.
Excellent for grimdark and gothic colour schemes
Shadow Thorn pairs beautifully with Frostveil, Iceborn, Turnbull Turquoise and muted grey shades. Building up to the highlights with lighter blue-green or ice-blue colours creates a strong cool colour gradient.
The shade also works well alongside rust, copper and earthy browns, making it an excellent fit for Blanchitsu-inspired projects.
Versatile for various techniques
Shadow Thorn is suitable for basecoating, layering, shading, blending and glazing. The pigment-rich Warpaints Fanatic formula can be used both fully opaque and highly diluted.
As a mixing colour, Shadow Thorn is useful for making blue, green and grey darker and cooler without immediately adding neutral black.
Usage
Shake the bottle well before use. Apply Shadow Thorn in several thin coats as a dark base or shadow shade. Allow the colour to show in the deepest recesses and then work up to the raised areas with lighter blue-green, turquoise or ice-blue shades.
