Acrylic Paint Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic Molten Lava — Orange, Liquid, 1 pc

Acrylic Paint Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic Molten Lava — Orange, Liquid, 1 pc is a high-pigment liquid acrylic developed for miniature and model painting. Designed to deliver strong orange coverage, this paint works well as a basecoat, for layering and for weathering on plastic, resin and metal surfaces. The Fanatic Molten Lava shade belongs to Army Painter's Flexible Colour Triad System, offering consistent hue progression across complementary tones. The formula uses a premium resin base with stabilizers that maintain pigment dispersion even when the paint is thinned for washes or glazes.

Advantages

This Warpaints Fanatic acrylic offers intense pigmentation and excellent coverage in a single application, reducing the need for multiple coats. Its liquid consistency allows for smooth application and easy blending while remaining compatible with thinning for glazes and extreme dilution without pigment separation. The paint adheres reliably to common miniature materials—plastic, resin and metal—and is formulated for both beginners and experienced painters, providing stable colour progression within the Flexible Colour Triad System.

• Basecoating miniatures and models in vibrant orange tones

How to use

Shake the bottle before use to ensure pigment is evenly distributed. Apply directly from the bottle for solid basecoats or transfer a small amount to a palette for controlled layering. For smooth coverage, use thin, even strokes and allow adequate drying time between layers. To create glazes or washes, gradually thin the paint with an appropriate acrylic thinner or distilled water while maintaining pigment suspension; test on a scrap surface first. Clean brushes with water and mild soap after use.

Usage recommendations

For consistent results, follow the Flexible Colour Triad pairing: use darker triad mates for shadows and lighter mates for highlights to achieve a natural colour progression. Avoid extreme thinning directly in the bottle; thin on a palette or in a separate mixing container. Store in a cool, dry place and reseal the container after use to preserve pigment stability.
