Admiral Grey from the Ionic Smart Colors range – a dark greenish grey for uniforms and shading. Matt 20 ml acrylic.

Admiral Grey is a dark grey with a green cast – the colour of naval uniforms and ship hulls. It is a calm dark tone that works both as a shade for greys and as a base coat wherever grey should read earthy rather than technical.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the grey have a green cast?
Because a perfectly neutral grey looks dead on a figure. The green cast gives the surface character while keeping it calm – it is the difference between grey paint and grey material.

What do I highlight it with?
Armour Grey or Moon Grey. White would strip the green character away at the first step.

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.
