This dark purple texture creates an unusual quartz surface for places where magic is at work – cursed circles, blighted lands and soil steeped in dark sorcery. The dark tone adds depth to the base and lets the pale, vivid colours of the miniature shine. It belongs to the Wargame Terrains line, which means a smaller 100 ml pot at a price that suits a wargamer building bases in batches rather than one large diorama.

How do I show a magical glow on the base?
Around the source of the magic, build thin layers of fluorescent or light paint and feather them out. On a dark base, even a subtle highlight reads as a strong glow.
How do I clean my tools?
Water, as long as the paste is still wet. Rinse the spatula and the old brush right after use – cured acrylic paste will not come off.
Can the paste be thinned?
Yes, with water or acrylic thinner if you need it to flow better. Thinning costs it some shape retention, so go easy.
