Abteilung 502 Oil Paint - Cadmium Red (AKABT560)

Cadmium Red brings the punch. It's a strong, vibrant dark red that holds up whether you're blending subtle shading or dropping in a bold accent, and it's the tube to reach for when reds need to actually read as red. Its long open time means you can push and pull it around a model until the nuance is exactly right.

Best for

• Rich red uniforms, markings and banners
• Building red shading and highlights on figures
• Blood and battle-damage effects
• Warm accents on armour and vehicles

Vivid straight from the tube and forgiving to blend — it holds its intensity even after several thinned-down layers.

The red that stays vibrant. Blend it out with a soft filbert brush, and keep some Vermilion handy for brighter accents.
