Advantages

Weapon Bronze uses a proprietary blend of aluminium and mica to produce a shimmery finish with improved coverage compared with traditional metallic paints, reducing the need for many thin layers. As a water-based and non-toxic formulation, it cleans up with water and is compatible with standard miniature painting workflows. The paint mixes readily with other Fanatic Metallic colours, allowing for customized metallic tones and smooth transitions when shading or highlighting.

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to evenly suspend the metallic pigments. Apply thin, even coats with a fine brush or airbrush for best control; allow each layer to dry before adding additional coats to build opacity and depth. For finer details or highlights, use a small brush and lighter strokes. Clean brushes and tools with water while the paint is wet. When mixing with other metallics, test on a palette to achieve the desired tone before applying to the model.

Usage recommendations

Work in thin layers to avoid pooling of metallic flakes and to maintain a smooth sheen. Use a matte or satin varnish if you prefer to reduce gloss after the metallic layer has fully dried. Store the paint upright in a cool, dry place and keep the cap tightly closed to prevent drying between uses.
