Product Information

Full details

This 12ml pot of Kislev Flesh is essential for miniature painters looking to add realistic highlights and depth to their models. It is designed for hobbyists working on human or humanoid figures, offering a warm, sandy skin tone that layers perfectly over base coats. While the paint is highly versatile, users should note that as a layer paint, it is semi-transparent and intended for building up color rather than achieving full opacity in a single coat.

FAQs

Do I need to prime my miniature before using Kislev Flesh?

Can I use this paint with an airbrush?

While it is formulated for brush use, it can be airbrushed if thinned appropriately with a suitable acrylic thinner.

Is this paint toxic?

No, the Warhammer Layer paint range is non-toxic and safe for standard hobby use.

How long does it take to dry?

Depending on the thickness of the application, it typically dries to a touch-dry state in a few minutes, though full curing takes longer.

Can I mix this with other colors?

Yes, Kislev Flesh is an acrylic paint and can be mixed with other colors in the range to create custom highlight shades.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears streaky when applied.

The paint may be too thick or you are applying too much pressure. Thin the paint with a small amount of water and use a lighter touch with your brush.

Paint is drying inside the pot.

Ensure the lid is snapped fully closed after every use. If it starts to thicken, add a drop of clean water or an acrylic medium and stir well.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Non-toxic and water-based for easy cleanup
  • Excellent for creating smooth color transitions

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before use, ensure your model is primed and has a base coat already applied. Always shake the pot vigorously before opening to ensure the pigment is evenly distributed. To preserve the paint, keep the lid tightly sealed when not in use; if the paint begins to feel thick, add a tiny amount of water or thinning medium to the pot, but avoid over-thinning as it can reduce the adhesive properties. Clean your brushes immediately after use with soap and water to prevent the acrylic from curing in the bristles.
