Black Forest from the Ionic Smart Colors range – a near-black dark green for the deepest shadows. Matt 20 ml acrylic.

Black Forest is a near-black green with a blue cast – the colour of a forest at night. It is the deepest point of the green ladder and one of the best shading colours in the range: dark enough for contrast, coloured enough that the shadow never becomes a hole.

What it is good for on miniatures

  • The deepest green shadows – the bottom of folds and lightless areas.
  • Dark foliage – the lower layers of leaves and undergrowth.
  • Dark green cloth – cloaks meant to read as nearly black.
  • A black substitute – in green and natural schemes.

What to combine it with

Build shadows with Black and Dark Sea Blue, transitions and highlights with Forest Green and Ogre Green.

Frequently asked questions

How do I paint a bush with depth?
Start with Black Forest over the whole shape, then dry-brush progressively lighter greens from above only. The bottom of the bush has to stay dark – depth comes from what you do not light.

How does it differ from Dark Green?
Black Forest is darker and bluer, Dark Green cleaner and greener. Black Forest is a shadow, Dark Green still a usable base.

How do I thin this paint?
With water or an Ionic thinner. The formula is self-hydrating, so it stays workable on the palette far longer than ordinary acrylics – a drop is enough for brush work, and roughly 1 : 1 for airbrush.

Is the finish really matt?
Yes, it dries matt with no shiny patches. If the figure is going on the gaming table, seal it with a matt varnish at the end.

The full range is in the Ionic Smart Colors category.
