Acrylic Paint Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic: Blood Chalice — Red, liquid, 1 pc

Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic: Blood Chalice is a liquid red acrylic paint formulated for miniature painting, model kits and tabletop figures. The high-pigment, opaque formula sits in a premium resin base with stabilizers that allow consistent pigment dispersion and make thinning possible without loss of coverage. Blood Chalice belongs to a Flexible Colour Triad, so it works predictably with other colours from the same family to create smooth, natural transitions from shadow to highlight on plastic, metal and resin surfaces.

Advantages

The paint delivers intense colour and excellent coverage in one coat for many applications, while remaining thin-able for glazing, washes and fine layering. Its premium resin base improves flow and adhesion on commonly used miniature materials. The formulation retains pigment stability over time, reducing separation and the need for extensive shaking. Designed for easy use by beginners and reliable performance for experienced painters, it balances usability with professional-level results.

Suitable for

• Painting tabletop miniatures and wargaming figures
• Detail work and small-area coverage on plastic, metal and resin models
• Layering, glazing and controlled washes to build highlights and shadows
• Model kits, dioramas and hobby projects requiring an opaque red tone

Key specifications

• Finish: opaque, satin to matte depending on dilution
• Colour family: red (Flexible Colour Triad compatibility)
• Consistency: liquid acrylic suitable for brush, airbrush when thinned
• Material compatibility: plastic, metal and resin surfaces
• Packaging: single 1 pc bottle

How to use

Shake the bottle before use to ensure even pigment distribution. Apply directly with a fine brush for detail work or a broader brush for base coats. For glazing, layering or airbrushing, thin the paint gradually with a compatible acrylic thinner or water until the desired flow and opacity are achieved. Allow sufficient drying time between coats and avoid applying excessively thick layers to prevent loss of detail on miniatures.

Usage recommendations

Use a primer suited to the model material before applying Blood Chalice to improve adhesion and colour fidelity. For smooth transitions, work from darker to lighter triad members and build highlights in thin, controlled layers. Clean brushes and airbrush components promptly after use with water or an appropriate cleaner.
