Product Information
Full details
Designed specifically for miniature hobbyists and model painters, Waaagh! Flesh is a high-pigment base acrylic paint that provides a solid foundation for orc-themed color schemes. It is perfect for painters looking to achieve professional-grade coverage on skin tones and dark surfaces, though users should be aware that as a thick base paint, it requires thinning with a small amount of water to achieve the smoothest finish on complex textures.

FAQs
Do I need to prime my model before using Waaagh! Flesh?
Yes, while this paint has excellent coverage, applying a primer ensures better adhesion to the plastic, resin, or metal surface.
Can I use this paint in an airbrush?
You can, but it must be thinned significantly with an acrylic thinner to avoid clogging the airbrush nozzle.
Is this paint oil-based or acrylic?
It is a water-based acrylic paint, which means it is non-toxic and easy to clean with water.
How long does it take to dry?
It typically dries to the touch within 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the application and ambient humidity.
Can I mix this with other colors?
Yes, it is fully compatible with other water-based acrylic hobby paints for custom color mixing.
What is the best way to clean my brushes after use?
Rinse your brushes thoroughly with clean water immediately after you finish painting to prevent the acrylic from drying in the bristles.
Troubleshooting
The paint feels thick and leaves brush strokes.
Add a tiny amount of water to the paint on your palette until it flows smoothly.
The paint has separated in the pot.
Use a clean stir tool or a dedicated paint agitator ball to mix the pigments back into the medium.
The lid will not close properly.
Check the rim for dried paint buildup and clean it thoroughly with a damp cloth or brush.
Pros and Cons

- Water-soluble for easy brush cleanup

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, shake the pot thoroughly to ensure the pigment and medium are properly mixed. If the paint appears too thick, dispense a small amount onto a wet palette and mix in a drop of water until it reaches the consistency of skim milk.
- Compatibility: Safe for use on all standard gaming miniatures, including those made of high-impact polystyrene, white metal, and polyurethane resin.
- Care: Always ensure the flip-top lid clicks shut completely after use. If paint accumulates in the rim of the lid, wipe it clean with a damp cloth to maintain an airtight seal.
- Storage: Store upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the acrylic emulsion from separating or hardening.
