Hence, they can coat the entire units neatly and quickly. citadel sprays are a great way to quickly and easily prime plastic, metal or resin models.

Base Paints

As we all know the groundwork of the complete painting system depends on base paints. Therefore, a basecoat when well applied provides your work with a smooth starting point.  The basecoats involve Citadel Base paints, with excellent coverage and content of high pigmentation. You can use Citadel spray when your miniature is of one color. The examples include Stormcast Eternals and Space Marines.  It is fast as compared to the base coating. Also, it gives you more time to remove your competitors.

Shade Paints

The technique you can use with Citadel shades is washing. It can bring out all the delicate textures and details on your miniature. Citadel Shades gives definite details to your model. Also, they offer effective and natural shading.

Layer Paints

Nowadays, painters prefer to use layer paints. They use light colors to creating the highlights on the miniature’s raised areas. Also, they make the addition of light color layers. Citadel Layer Paints have a specific opacity so that they can be used with the base paints for amazing results.

Dry Citadel Paints

The best technique for confining the raised details is dry brushing. Generally, it makes the natural highlights of different models. For instance, dry paints work best on those models having sharp edges or small details. Dry Citadel Paints are intended to make this way of painting as easy as possible.

Citadel Glazes

Another advanced technique nowadays is glazing. Numerous professional painters use it for giving great effects to the miniatures. Overall, it is used for intensifying an area of color.  Citadel Glazes are particular washed that can make the layers and base coats stand out. Or, also merge the parts where the layers are too stark or too bright colors are used.

Citadel Edge Paints

These paints assist in giving your miniatures a bright, sharp, and final highlight. Usually, these Citadel Edge Paints contain the formula similar to the layer paints. But, there is a difference in the shade. Therefore, you can make use of them with the rest of these Paints range.

Air Paints

This is the complete set of Citadel Air paints – fifty-one colors, exactly the same as the standard Citadel range, only this time formulated for use in your airbrush, with a pot of thinner to help you achieve the perfect consistency!

Technical Paints

Citadel Technical paints are designed to help you achieve a range of effects, from creating rust and corrosion to the foetid slurry of Nurgle’s Rot or the bloody gore of Blood for the Blood God. The range also includes Agrellan Earth and Martian Ironearth for creating dry, cracked ground.
