Salmon is a warm pink with an orange undertone – the colour of salmon flesh rather than candyfloss. It reads pleasantly natural on a figure, which suits both clothing and warm highlights on flesh tones.

Frequently asked questions
Salmon or Pastel Pink on cheeks?
Salmon is warmer and more natural; Pastel Pink is cooler and softer. For flush, Salmon is usually the better pick.
Does it cover well?
Yes – thanks to its white pigment load it covers in two thin coats, even over a mid-tone base.
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.
