Citadel Base Paints

About

Base paints are the starting point for most models. They are thick and heavily pigmented, so one or two thin coats give a solid, even colour over your undercoat. Thin them a little with water for smooth coverage, then add depth with a Shade and pick out edges with a Layer . Browse all Citadel paints or read Citadel paint types explained . Games Workshop is renaming Citadel Colour to Warhammer Colour. It is the same paint under new branding, so older Citadel pots and new Warhammer Colour pots match. Read about the rebrand .
