Warpaints Fanatic: Dragon Red Acrylic Paint – The Army Painter

Warpaints Fanatic: Dragon Red

Unleash the fury of the wyrm with Warpaints Fanatic Dragon Red from The Army Painter. A deep, intense red with a rich, slightly warm undertone, Dragon Red is the definitive basecoat for dark red colour schemes — evoking scorched scales, ancient armour, and the smouldering menace of creatures born from fire and shadow.

Whether you're painting the scaled hide of a Chaos Dragon, the brooding war-plate of a World Eaters Berzerker, or the ceremonial robes of a Tzeentch sorcerer, Dragon Red provides a commanding, opaque foundation that takes washes and highlights with exceptional results.
