Warhammer - Citadel Colour: Contrast Leviathan Purple 29-62
Contrast paints combine the high flow of a Shade paint with the intense color density and adhesion of a Layer paint, allowing miniatures to be painted quickly and efficiently in a single coat. Leviathan Purple is ideal for deep, rich purple tones and works particularly well for shadows, fabrics, cloaks, skin, magical effects, energies, as well as dark or mystical details. The paint creates strong contrasts and instantly adds depth and character to models.
Contrast Paints act as both a base color and shading at the same time, automatically highlighting details and greatly simplifying the painting process. When applied over metallic paints, Leviathan Purple alters the color tone without obscuring the metallic texture, making it perfect for enchanted weapons or mystical armor.
For optimal results, light-colored primers are recommended. Wraithbone, White Scar, and Grey Seer are particularly suitable, as they perfectly showcase the transparency and excellent flow properties of Contrast paints.
