Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic: Ruddy Umber 18ml

Ruddy Umber is a warm, earthy reddish-brown that does the quiet, essential jobs — leather, wood, hair, dirt and the honest grime that makes a model look lived-in. Part of Army Painter's Warpaints Fanatic line, it lays down smooth and pigment-rich for reliable coverage every time.

Best for

• Base-coating and layering by brush
• Thinning right down for glazes, washes or airbrush work
• Leather, wood, hair and earthy basing

The dropper bottle keeps waste down and makes mixing your own thinned coats a doddle, so you get the same reliable feel from the first bottle to the fiftieth.

The unsung brown that ties a whole model together. Pair it with a darker shade and a lighter highlight to build depth, or add a good synthetic brush to make the most of the flow.
