Lizard Green is a dark olive green – earthy, muted and very natural. It is the colour of lizards, moss and forest undergrowth. On a figure it reads calm and suits anywhere green should look natural rather than fantasy-toxic.

How do I paint moss?
Irregular patches of Lizard Green in the recesses, a lighter green dry-brushed over them and a touch of yellow at the edges. Moss grows on the shaded side and in damp – not evenly over a whole stone.
Is it a green or a brown?
A green with an olive, slightly brownish cast. Next to a clean green it reads earthy.
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.
