Ice Blue from the Ionic Smart Colors range – a pale ice blue for highlights and cold effects. Matt 20 ml acrylic.

Ice Blue is a very pale cold blue – the colour of ice and winter light. It is the top point of the blue ladder, lightening it without turning it grey. On ice effects, frost weapons and night scenes it is irreplaceable.

Frequently asked questions

How do I paint ice?
Base with Ice Blue, glaze a dark blue into the cracks and draw the edges up with white. Finish by glossing the whole area – ice is shiny, and without the shine it looks like stone.

Why not highlight blue with white?
White greys a blue out and the tone loses saturation. Ice Blue lightens while keeping the blue character to the very top.

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.
