Paint Set Army Painter Flexible Triad PLUS+ — Olive Greens, miniature acrylic paints

Army Painter Flexible Triad PLUS+ — Olive Greens is a coordinated set of three acrylic miniature paints in olive-green tones designed for hobbyists and tabletop gamers. The set includes a base, highlight and shade tone formulated to work together for consistent layering and blending on plastic, resin and metal miniatures, vehicles and terrain. The water-based formula is suitable for fine detail work as well as broader coverage, allowing controlled thinning and reapplication for smooth transitions and durable finishes.

Advantages

The triad approach provides a ready-made palette of matching base, highlight and shade that simplifies color selection and ensures harmonious results. The paints are water-based and compatible with common miniature painting techniques such as layering, wet blending and glazing. Formulated for flexible application, these acrylics allow for thinning with water or medium, reduce brush drag and dry to a stable, non-tacky surface that accepts varnish and washes.

Suitable for

• Painting infantry, vehicles and armored models in military or sci‑fi themes
• Scenery, foliage and terrain elements that require olive-green variations
• Basecoating, highlighting and shading on plastic, resin and metal miniatures
• Layering and blending workflows for tabletop miniatures and scale models

Key specifications

• Three coordinated acrylic colors: base, highlight and shade in olive-green tones
• Water-based formulation suitable for thinning and mixing
• Designed for use on plastic, resin and metal surfaces
• Flexible drying properties to support layering and blending techniques
• Matte to satin finish that accepts varnishes and washes

How to use

Shake each paint bottle before use to ensure pigment dispersion. Apply the base tone as an even layer over primed surfaces, thinning with water or a suitable acrylic medium to improve flow if necessary. Use the highlight tone to build up raised areas and edges with light, controlled strokes and apply the shade tone to recesses and shadowed regions to increase contrast. Allow each layer to dry before applying additional glazes or varnish. Clean brushes with water immediately after use.

Usage recommendations

For best results, prime miniatures with a compatible primer matched to the model material, apply thin multiple coats rather than a single thick coat, and test thinning ratios on a palette to achieve desired opacity and flow. Store paints upright in a cool, dry place and reseal caps after use to maintain consistency.
