Product Information
Full details
Citadel Layer Paint in Doombull Brown is an essential tool for hobbyists and miniature painters looking to add depth and realistic shading to their models. Designed specifically to be applied over Citadel Base paints, this high-quality acrylic paint allows for seamless color transitions and crisp highlighting without the need for manual color mixing. While it offers a professional-grade matt finish, users should note that the 12ml pot is formulated specifically for layering, meaning it has a thinner consistency than base coats and may require multiple passes to achieve full opacity.

FAQs
Do I need to thin this paint with water?
Citadel Layer paints are designed to be used straight from the pot, but you can thin them slightly with water if you are looking to perform advanced glazing techniques.
Can I use this paint as a base coat?
It is not recommended. Layer paints lack the high pigment density required for base coating. Use a Citadel Base paint for your first layer to ensure proper coverage.
Is this paint safe for children?
The formula is non-toxic and water-based, making it safe for general hobby use, though supervision is recommended for younger children.
How do I clean my brushes after use?
Because it is water-based, you can simply clean your brushes with warm water and mild brush soap immediately after finishing your painting session.
Will this paint work on surfaces other than miniatures?
While designed for plastic, metal, and resin miniatures, it will adhere to other primed surfaces, but results may vary on non-porous materials like glass or polished plastic.
Troubleshooting
The paint appears streaky when applied.
Your paint may be slightly too thick or your brush stroke is too aggressive. Try adding a microscopic amount of water to the paint and apply it in thinner, more controlled passes.
The paint is drying inside the pot.
Ensure the lid is snapped shut securely after every use. If the rim is covered in dried paint, clean it with a damp cloth so the lid can seal completely.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent for building smooth gradients and highlights
- Water-based formula for easy cleanup and brush care
- High compatibility with plastic, metal, and resin models
- Consistent matt finish across all Citadel Layer colors
- Convenient 12ml pot size for easy storage and access
Cons
- Requires multiple layers for full opacity due to thin consistency
- Not intended for single-coat base application
- Pot design may result in paint drying out if the lid is not fully sealed
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best results, start with a clean, primed miniature. Use a high-quality sable or synthetic brush designed for fine detail work. When preparing your workspace, keep a cup of clean water nearby to rinse your brush between colors and to slightly dampen your bristles before loading paint, which helps maintain a smooth flow.
Compatibility is seamless within the Citadel range; it is specifically engineered to be used over `Citadel Base` paints and can be followed by `Citadel Shade` washes or `Citadel Edge` highlights. After painting, always ensure the pot lid is pressed firmly until you hear a snap to prevent the paint from thickening or drying out. If the paint becomes too thick over time, adding a tiny drop of specialized acrylic thinner or distilled water can help restore its consistency.
