Product Information
Full details
Citadel Contrast Paint in Plaguebearer Flesh is designed for hobbyists of all skill levels who want to achieve high-quality, tabletop-ready miniature paint jobs with maximum efficiency. By combining base coating and shading into a single application, it significantly reduces painting time for large batches of models; however, it requires a steady hand and a specific primer base to prevent pooling on flat surfaces.

FAQs
Do I need to prime my models before using Plaguebearer Flesh?
Yes, for the best results, use a light-colored primer like Grey Seer or Wraithbone to allow the transparency of the Contrast Paint to work correctly.
Can I use this on metal or resin models?
Yes, Citadel Contrast Paint is formulated to work on plastic, metal, and resin models provided they have been properly primed.
Is this paint non-toxic?
It is a water-based hobby paint, but it should not be ingested or used in a way that risks contact with eyes or mouth.
Can I mix this with other Citadel paints?
It is designed to be used with other Contrast paints or Contrast Medium; mixing with traditional base or layer paints may alter the specific 'flow' properties of the formula.
How do I clean my brushes after using Contrast paint?
Wash them thoroughly with clean water and, if necessary, use a brush soap to ensure no pigment remains at the base of the ferrule.
Troubleshooting
Paint is pooling too heavily on flat surfaces
Use a clean, dry brush to soak up excess paint immediately after application.
The finish looks streaky or uneven
Ensure you are using a smooth, light-colored primer base and apply the paint in one fluid motion without over-working it.
The paint is drying too fast to work with
Mix in a small amount of Contrast Medium to extend the drying time and improve flow.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly faster than traditional base-wash-highlight methods
- Provides built-in depth and shading automatically
- Ideal for painters looking for quick tabletop-ready results
- Compatible with a wide range of miniature materials
Cons
- Requires careful application to avoid tide marks on large flat surfaces
- Performance is dependent on using the correct primer base
- Less control over specific highlight placement compared to traditional layering
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before use, ensure your miniature is cleaned and primed with an acrylic primer suitable for miniatures. Shake the pot thoroughly to ensure the pigments and medium are properly mixed. If the paint feels too thick or leaves brush strokes, you can thin it slightly with Contrast Medium, though water may break the surface tension too much. Always store the pot upright in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is snapped shut securely to prevent the water-based medium from evaporating. Clean your brushes immediately with water after use to prevent the fast-drying formula from damaging the bristles.
