Base: Steel Legion Drab (12ML)

A rich, earthy khaki-brown Citadel Base paint formulated with high-opacity pigments. Designed to provide exceptional, solid coverage over both dark and light undercoats, it dries to a smooth, uniform matte finish that serves as the perfect foundation for military fatigues, rugged leather, and industrial terrain. Packaged in a 12ml pot.

(Note: Named after the iconic Armageddon Steel Legion, this paint is a staple for hobbyists painting grimdark armies, trench warfare uniforms, and weathered battlefield gear.)

What it’s good for:

~ Serving as the essential, high-opacity base layer for painting classic military fatigues, heavy trench coats, and mechanized infantry uniforms

~ Providing a solid, realistic foundation for worn, utilitarian leather items like heavy boots, storage pouches, and rifle straps

~ Painting industrial sci-fi terrain, muddy trench walls, and weathered concrete bunkers that need a grit-stained, realistic finish

~ Establishing an excellent base coat for dirty beast hides, monstrous fur, and muddy, sun-baked desert or wasteland scenic bases

What it goes well with:

~ Agrax Earthshade or Seraphim Sepia (Shade washes—Agrax Earthshade adds a heavy layer of greasy trench grime and deep shadow, while Seraphim Sepia creates a lighter, dustier, sun-bleached look)

~ Karak Stone or Tallarn Sand (Layer paints used to smoothly build up highlights on fabric folds, armor edges, and prominent leather surfaces)

~ Screaming Skull or Ushabti Bone (Fine edge highlights or light drybrushes to give the absolute sharpest edges and tattered corners a dusty, worn-out finish)
