Paint Set - Ancestral Machines

Green Stuff World Paint Set - Ancestral Machines

A themed set of acrylic paints of the Spanish brand Green Stuff World. Acrylic means that the paints are thinned and cleaned with water; neither cellulose nor lacquer thinner belongs in them, as they would curdle the binder. The point of a themed set is that the shades in it match one another and you do not have to assemble them laboriously from different ranges and manufacturers.

What the set is aimed at

The name refers to ancient machines, that is, to constructs, automatons, powered armor and mechanical structures of the kind that appear in fantasy games and in figure wargaming. Models like that stand or fall on how convincing their surface looks. Metal with centuries behind it is not glossy and even but dark, grimed and broken up, and precisely that impression is built by layering, not by one color.

Use

• Shake the bottle properly before every use, as the pigment settles to the bottom
• With a brush, paint in two to three thin coats, not in one thick one
• Always thin the paint for an airbrush, otherwise the nozzle clogs
• Work from the dark surface to the light edges, not the other way round
• The impression of age is supported by a dark wash in the recesses and a dry brush on the edges

Who the set is for

For painters of fantasy figures and wargaming armies who want the matched shades for mechanical and ancient-looking models together. It also serves on accessories, terrain and bases that are meant to belong to the same scene.

Keep out of the reach of children. When spraying, work in a ventilated area and protect your airways. You will find the actual composition of shades on the box of the set.
