Pistachio is a pale green with a yellow undertone and low saturation – the colour of pistachio and an old painted wall. On a figure it is a gentle cloth colour that never draws the eye.

How do I mix the colour of an old painted wall?
No mixing needed – Pistachio is already it. Just shade Green Ochre into the corners and add some chipping so the wall reads as lived in.
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.
