Army Painter SPEEDPAINT 2.0 Ashen Stone is an advanced model paint in an 18ml bottle, designed for efficient and rapid painting of miniatures and models. It is part of the innovative SPEEDPAINT 2.0 series, developed by The Army Painter in collaboration with the hobby community, ensuring high performance for painters of all skill levels.
Key Features and Application
Ashen Stone paint features a unique formula that allows for a complete painting effect in a single layer. The primary applications of the product include:
Rapid miniature painting: Ideal for hobbyists seeking effective methods to shorten work time on models, especially when painting armies for wargames.
Instant shading and highlighting: When applied over a white primer, the paint self-creates intense shading in recesses and a highlight effect on raised areas, giving the model depth without the need for multiple layers.
Color versatility: The Ashen Stone shade is a neutral, grayish-brown color, particularly useful for painting architectural elements, stones, rocks, concrete structures, as well as certain types of armor, uniforms, or terrain with a natural, matte finish.
Technical Details and Compatibility
Army Painter SPEEDPAINT 2.0 Ashen Stone is a water-based acrylic paint. Its advanced formula has been designed for optimal performance:
Single-layer application: Just one coat of paint applied directly to a surface covered with a light primer (preferably white) is enough to achieve a full shading and color effect.
Quick drying: The paint dries quickly, allowing you to continue working on your model, such as highlighting, dry brushing, or applying details with standard acrylic paints, within just a few minutes. This is a significant feature for an efficient painting process.
Compatibility: Once dry, SPEEDPAINT 2.0 paint is stable and allows for the application of subsequent layers of traditional acrylic paints without the risk of reactivation. This enables further highlighting, adding details, or painting other areas of the model. The paint is compatible with most standard modeling brushes.
Capacity: The standard 18ml bottle offers high efficiency and is sufficient for painting numerous miniatures.
The Speedpaint 2.0 series, including the Ashen Stone color, is an ideal solution for hobbyists who value time and efficiency, allowing for professional painting results with minimal effort.
