Frequently asked questions
How does Prussian blue differ from an ordinary dark blue?
By its green undertone. Next to Dark Blue it reads cooler and deeper – which is why it suits historical uniforms where the cloth should feel heavy.
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.
