Citadel Contrast Purples, Pinks & Flesh Tones

Achieve Realistic Detail with Citadel Contrast Purples & Flesh Tones

Mastering realistic skin tones and deep, regal purples is one of the greatest challenges in miniature painting. The Citadel Contrast range simplifies this process with its revolutionary "one-coat" formula. Specifically designed to provide a vibrant base, deep shading, and natural highlights in a single application, these Purples, Pinks, and Flesh Tones are essential for any hobbyist looking to elevate their models with speed and precision.

The Contrast Advantage for Organic Textures:

  • Instant Flesh Definition: Use favorites like Guilliman Flesh and Fyreslayer Flesh to instantly define facial features and muscle groups without the need for complex blending.
  • Deep, Rich Purples: From the vibrant Magos Purple to the dark, shadowy Shyish Purple, achieve smooth transitions on cloaks and armor with ease.
  • Speed-Painting Efficiency: Dramatically reduce your painting time on large units and character models while maintaining professional-grade depth and contrast.
  • Specialized Tones: Includes unique options like Plaguebearer Flesh and Gutrippa Flesh for monsters, aliens, and weathered textures.

Pro-Tip for Best Results:

Contrast paints are semi-transparent and work best over a light, smooth undercoat. We recommend using Wraithbone for a warmer, more natural look on flesh tones, or Grey Seer for cooler, more vibrant purples and pinks.
