Purple from the Ionic Smart Colors range – a classic mid violet for cloth and robes. Matt 20 ml acrylic.

Purple is a classic mid violet – balanced between the blue and red sides of the spectrum. It is the core violet of the range: saturated enough to be a main colour, neutral enough to shade and highlight without the hue drifting.

What it is good for on miniatures

  • Violet cloth – robes, cloaks and dresses over whole areas.
  • Heraldry – violet fields on shields and banners.
  • The base of magic effects – the mid tone between a dark edge and a glowing core.
  • Mixing – the starting point for both lighter and darker violets.

What to combine it with

Build shadows with Deep Violet and Dark Violet, transitions and highlights with Blue Violet and Lavender.

Frequently asked questions

How do I build a violet ladder?
Base with Purple, shade with Deep Violet and Dark Violet, highlight with Blue Violet and Light Lavender. Violet takes plenty of contrast – three steps in each direction is not excessive.

Why does violet look grey on my figure?
Usually because it was lightened with white. Violet has to be highlighted through lighter violets, otherwise it loses saturation at the first step.

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.
