Dark Green is a dark neutral green with no blue or yellow shift – the core shading tone for the whole green side of a palette. If a palette holds only one dark green, this is it.

Which green should I buy first?
This one. Dark Green is neutral, so it shades almost any other green and still works as a standalone dark colour.
How do I thin it?
With water or an AK thinner. A few drops are enough for brush work; airbrushing needs more – AK thinners and cleaners are made for that. With acrylics, two thin coats always beat one thick one.
Is the finish really matt?
Yes, the 3rd Generation range dries matt. To protect the figure or even out the sheen, seal it with a matt varnish at the end.
The full range is in the AK 3rd Generation category.
