Abteilung 502 Oil Paint - Red (AKABT120)

Red is one of those tones you reach for more than you'd expect. It's the classic red-primer look for tanks and armour, it works straight onto ship hulls and sci-fi kit, and it matches figure cloaks, robes and trim without any fuss. Push it into stippling or colour-mapping and it adds real vibrancy wherever a scheme needs lifting.

Best for

• Red-primer effects on vehicles and armour
• Ship hulls and sci-fi models
• Figure clothing, capes and trim

Work it thin over a base coat with a soft brush and it blends wet-in-wet, turning a flat red panel into something with real depth and weather.

An oil paint tube built for blending, not flat colour. Cut it with a proper thinner, keep a tube of Titanium White handy for mixing, and browse the wider Abteilung 502 oil range for more.
