Ivory is a white with a warm, creamy undertone – the colour of ivory, old paper and bleached canvas. On a figure it is a more natural white than a pure one, particularly where a material should look aged and organic.

Why not paint teeth white?
Because pure white teeth look artificial. Ivory with a weak brown glaze between them reads naturally even on a small figure.
Ivory or Offwhite?
Ivory is warmer and creamier; Offwhite is more neutral. Ivory for bone and old paper, Offwhite for white clothing.
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.
