The cleanest shortcut to a rich, characterful red you'll find in a pot. Blood Angels Red glides over a light undercoat and instantly reads as deep, shaded crimson — bright on the raised edges, dark in the folds — without a single highlight pass. Tailor-made for red-armoured Space Marines, cloaks and heraldry, it turns a daunting block of red into a five-minute job.
