Citadel Shade — a wash that flows into recesses for instant depth
Smooth matt
18ml pot
Read moreRead less
If you only own one shade, make it Nuln Oil. This black wash is the most reliable trick in the hobby — flood it over metal, armour and detailed areas and it instantly finds every recess, leaving crisp definition and a grimy, battle-worn finish. It's the closest thing to a "make it look painted" button there is.
Best for
Shading silver and gold metallics to instant effect
Sharpening detail on armour, mechanical bits and black areas
One pot covers an army's worth of models — no wonder it's the most-used paint on most hobby desks.

It's a black wash. You flood it over a painted model and it flows into all the recesses, instantly adding shadow and definition. It's the closest thing the hobby has to a “make it look painted” button.
How big is the pot and how far does it go?
It's an 18ml pot, and a little goes a long way — one pot will comfortably shade an army's worth of models before you need another.
Do I need to thin it, or can I use it straight from the pot?
Straight from the pot. It's a ready-to-use, water-based acrylic — no thinning or mixing required.
What is Nuln Oil best used on?
Metals especially — silver and gold armour, weapons and mechanical bits come alive with a single coat. It's also brilliant for sharpening detail on armour and darker areas.
Get both if you can — they're the classic starter pair. Nuln Oil (black) is for metals and cooler tones; Agrax (brown) is for leather, wood and earthy bits. Most painters keep both on the desk.
Great service from.this company and a good range of products..Will be shopping from this firm again...I can definitely recommend them.

Excellent, from a first time buyer
A bit apprehensive when buying items from somewhere I’ve not purchased from before but no problems at all. Good discount when buying a lot of paint.
Website good to navigate and easy to add and remove items from the basket. A bit disappointed on the high extra postage for the spray can, but I do understand. Will definitely buy again. Well packed and fast dispatch Regards, ian
