Acrylic Paint Army Painter Dark Sky 18 ml — Blue, liquid, for miniatures

Army Painter Dark Sky acrylic paint in an 18 ml bottle is a liquid blue pigment designed for painting wargaming miniatures and scale models.

The paint is suitable for basecoats, layering and weathering work and the bottle is supplied with mixing balls to help maintain an even consistency.
