Citadel Shade: Agrax Earthshade 18ml

Agrax Earthshade is the brown wash that does a bit of everything. Warm, versatile and forgiving, it sinks into recesses to add grime, depth and that lived-in look to leather, wood, bone, cloth and earthy bases. Alongside Nuln Oil it's half of every painter's starter kit for good reason.

Best for

• Weathering leather, wood, rope and earthy bases
• Warm shading on bone, cloth and skin

Brush it on and watch flat, toy-looking models suddenly read as proper grim-and-gritty miniatures.

An essential, not a luxury. Pair with Nuln Oil for metals and a shade brush to keep it tidy.
