The Army Painter – John Blanche Masterclass: The Darkness – WP4000P

Colour: Very dark blue-green / almost black
Finish: Matte
Contents: 18 ml

The Army Painter John Blanche Masterclass The Darkness is an extremely dark blue-green acrylic paint for miniature painting. The colour approaches black but retains a subtle cool green-blue undertone, giving shadows more colour and atmosphere than pure black.

Deep shadows without flat black

The Darkness is ideal for the darkest areas of a miniature. Use the colour in deep recesses, under armour plates, between folds of clothing, or as a dark base coat over which you can build up lighter shades of green, blue, or grey.

Because the shade is not a neutral black, dark surfaces remain visually interesting and pair perfectly with atmospheric grimdark colour schemes.

Ideal for armour, fabrics and creatures

The almost black blue-green colour works excellently on weathered armour, dark cloaks, leather and stone. The Darkness also makes an excellent base for monsters, demons, nocturnal creatures and dark scenery.

For black clothing, you can use the shade as a base colour and then work up to the highlights with cool grey or blue-green colours.

Excellent for grimdark and Blanchitsu styles

The Darkness perfectly complements the expressive and weathered look of the John Blanche Masterclass series. The colour pairs particularly well with rust, dirty ivory shades, muted greens, reddish-browns and weathered metallics.

This makes it a practical shadow colour that can visually tie together different materials on a single miniature.

Versatile for various techniques

The Darkness is suitable for basecoating, layering, shading, blending and glazing. The Warpaints Fanatic formula is highly pigmented and can also be thinned for more transparent applications.

As a mixing colour, The Darkness is useful for making other shades darker and cooler without immediately adding a fully neutral black.

Usage

Shake the bottle well before use. Apply The Darkness in several thin coats as a dark base or shadow shade. Leave the colour visible in the deepest recesses and then work up to the raised areas with lighter blue-green, grey, or other suitable shades.
