Citadel Layer: Deathclaw Brown 12ml

Deathclaw Brown is a warm, leathery tan that solves one of painting's most common headaches — believable leather, fur and worn cloth without the muddy guesswork. It sits midway up the brown ladder, so it works as a midtone over darker browns or a base for paler bone and sand. Straps, pouches, saddlery and shaggy pelts all come alive with it.

At a glance

Best for

• Leather, straps and worn equipment
• Tan cloth and shaggy fur
• A warm midtone over darker browns

Layer it over a chocolate base, hit the raised edges, then wash it back and you've got leather that looks handled rather than freshly bought.

Supplied as a single 12ml pot. Works beautifully alongside the rest of the Citadel layer range and a brown shade to settle into the creases.
