Army Painter Dragon Red Colour Primer Spray 400ml

The Army Painter Dragon Red Colour Primer Spray

Unleash the fury of the battlefield before a single brushstroke. The Army Painter Dragon Red Colour Primer Spray is a deep, dark red that primes and basecoats your miniatures in a single step — richer and more saturated than Pure Red, Dragon Red is the definitive primer for blood-soaked armour, daemonic flesh, and any force where a deep, brooding red sets the tone.

The unique colour primer formula combines a high-quality acrylic primer with a precisely matched basecoat colour, leaving a smooth, matt-ready surface that takes washes, drybrushing, and layering with outstanding results. The extra-fine pigment and precision nozzle ensure full, even coverage first time, preserving every sculpted detail on plastic, resin, and metal miniatures.
