Acrylic Paint, Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic: Wyvern Fury — Bordeaux, 1 pc

Acrylic Paint from Army Painter's Warpaints Fanatic range — Wyvern Fury in Bordeaux is a single 18–22 ml (typical hobby bottle volume) acrylic paint formulated for miniature and model painting. Designed for use on plastic, resin and metal miniatures, this water-based paint offers intense pigmentation and high coverage suitable for basecoating, layering and blending. The formula sits in a premium resin base with stabilizers that keep pigment suspended and allow for significant thinning while retaining colour strength and even application.

Advantages

Wyvern Fury — Bordeaux delivers rich, consistent colour with strong opacity that reduces the number of base coats required. The paint’s resin-based formulation and stabilizers enable smooth flow and reliable pigment dispersion even when thinned, which supports a range of techniques from solid coverage to glazes. Being water-based makes it compatible with common hobby thinners, mediums and sealers used in miniature painting workflows.

Suitable for

• Basecoating plastic, resin and metal miniatures
• Layering and blending on character models and tabletop figures
• Applying glazes and washes when thinned
• Colour progression using a triad system for highlights and shadows

Key specifications

• Paint type: water-based acrylic
• Finish: satin/opaque depending on application thickness
• Coverage: high pigmentation with strong opacity
• Compatibility: suitable for plastic, resin and metal surfaces
• Thinning: can be thinned extensively while maintaining pigment dispersion
• Application methods: brush application, layering, glazing and blending

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to homogenise the pigment and medium. Apply directly with a brush for basecoats, or thin with water or an appropriate acrylic medium to create glazes and smooth blends. For best results on miniatures, prime the model first with a compatible primer, apply thin multiple coats rather than a single heavy coat, and allow each layer to dry before applying the next. Clean brushes with water after use.

Usage recommendations

When creating natural colour progressions, select other paints from the same Flexible Colour Triad family to ensure consistent hue shifts from shadow to highlight. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place and avoid freezing to preserve consistency. Use a hobby-specific thinner or flow improver when performing very fine glazing or airbrushing to maintain even pigment dispersion.
