A proper, dependable black is the workhorse every painter reaches for, and Black Legion is exactly that — a deep, true black that floods into recesses and shades cloth, leather, weapons and dark armour in a single honest pass.

Whether you're blacking out a Chaos warband or just want a no-nonsense dark base, this is the pot that earns its keep.
