Features and Benefits

• Layering Excellence: Formulated with a thinner consistency than base paints, it is engineered to be applied over a darker base flesh tone (such as Cadian Fleshtone) to create smooth, natural highlights.

• Natural Finish: The color profile is balanced to look realistic on human faces, hands, and other exposed skin, avoiding the overly pink or yellow hues found in some other flesh paints.

• Smooth Buildability: Its consistency allows for excellent blending. You can build up thin layers to create a soft, lifelike transition from shadowed recesses to raised, highlighted areas.

• Versatility: Beyond skin, it is also a fantastic choice for light tan, parchment, or creamy-colored clothing and accessories, adding warmth to your model’s color scheme.

Usage Tips

• Layering Technique: To achieve the best results, use a darker flesh base coat first. Then, apply Kislev Flesh as your primary highlight, focusing on the most raised parts of the face or skin, such as the nose, cheekbones, and forehead.

• Thinning: Layer paints are already designed to be quite thin, but you can add a tiny amount of water to improve the flow further if you are attempting to glaze or blend transitions between colors.

• Application: Use a fine-detail brush for faces to ensure you are only highlighting the most prominent features. Applying too much paint can obscure the depth you established with your base coat and shade.

• Shading: If the tone looks too bright after layering, you can follow up with a very thin wash of a flesh-toned shade to tie the colors together and create a more uniform, healthy-looking skin texture.
