Product Information
Full details
Naggaroth Night is a high-quality, deep violet-purple base paint designed for hobbyists and miniature painters seeking a rich, opaque foundation for their models. This paint is perfect for painting robes, armor panels, and dark shadows, offering professional-grade coverage on plastic, resin, and metal surfaces. While it excels as a base layer, users should remember that as a matte acrylic, it requires thin applications to avoid obscuring fine details on the miniature's surface.

FAQs
Can I use Naggaroth Night with an airbrush?
Yes, but it must be thinned significantly with an acrylic thinner or airbrush medium to pass through the nozzle without clogging.
Does this paint require a primer?
For best results, always apply a primer to your miniature to help the base coat adhere properly to the plastic, resin, or metal.
Is this paint matte or glossy?
Naggaroth Night dries to a smooth, matte finish, which is standard for base colors in the Warhammer range.
How long does it take to dry?
Under normal conditions, it will be touch-dry within 15 to 30 minutes, though it is recommended to wait an hour before applying washes or highlights.
How do I clean brushes used with this paint?
Simply rinse your brushes thoroughly in clean, room-temperature water immediately after use.
Can this be mixed with other colors?
Yes, it is a water-based acrylic and can be mixed with other colors in the range to create custom shades and gradients.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears streaky or uneven
The paint may be too thin or the surface wasn't primed correctly. Ensure the model is primed and apply two thin coats instead of one thick coat.
Paint is too thick and clumping
Add a small drop of water to your palette and mix until smooth; do not add water directly to the pot.
Pigment is separated at the bottom
Shake the pot vigorously for at least 30-60 seconds to re-incorporate the medium and pigment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before painting, ensure your miniature is cleaned of any mold lines and is fully primed. Shake the pot thoroughly before use to ensure the pigments are properly mixed. If the paint feels tacky or thick, add a tiny amount of water to your palette—never directly into the pot, as this can lead to spoilage.
After your painting session, always clean your brushes immediately with water to prevent the acrylic from drying within the bristles. To maximize the longevity of your paint, ensure the lid is snapped tightly shut after every use to prevent evaporation. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
