The Army Painter Speedpaint: Grim Black 18ml

The Army Painter Speedpaint: Grim Black

Paint entire armies in a fraction of the time with The Army Painter Speedpaint Grim Black. A true, deep black Speedpaint that basecoats, shades, and highlights your miniatures in a single coat — flowing into recesses to create instant shadow while leaving raised surfaces lighter for a natural, striking contrast that would take hours to achieve with traditional techniques.

Simply apply over a white or light grey primer and watch Grim Black do the work for you, delivering a bold, dramatic black finish with depth and definition straight from the dropper bottle.

Key Features

• One-coat painting solution — basecoat, shade, and highlight simultaneously
• True black with intense contrast between recesses and raised surfaces
• Consistent flow and self-levelling formula across all Speedpaint colours
• 18ml spill-free dropper bottle with mixing ball pre-loaded for easy use
• Apply over a white or light grey primer for maximum contrast and vibrancy
• Fully compatible with the entire Warpaints Fanatic range for further detailing

Usage Tips

• Always prime with white or light grey before applying Speedpaints
• Apply in a single, smooth coat and allow to flow naturally into recesses
• Do not overwork the paint once applied — let it self-level for best results
• Seal with a matt varnish before applying additional layers or drybrushing
