ATOM COLOR Coral Pink

ATOM COLOR Coral Pink - a shade from the ATOM paint range

One bottle of a single shade from the ATOM modeling paint range from AMMO of Mig Jimenez. It is not a kit or a set but a paint for finishing models and figures. The name Coral Pink refers to coral pink, that is a pink tone with a warm orange cast.

Where you will use the shade

Of the whole pink palette, coral pink is the closest to living skin, so it often appears on figures and busts as the top tone of faces, hands and lips. Besides that it suits flowers and small vegetation in dioramas, colored fittings on civil vehicles, interiors, textiles and anything meant to look warm and soft. As a tinting component it shifts a red or flesh color into a softer, less cool shade.

Advice for working with the paint

• Stir the bottle properly so that the pigment returns through the whole volume.
• Warm pinks come out on a light base; on a dark one they look muted.
• On skin, work in thin coats and build the tone gradually, not in one heavy coat.
• If you thin the paint or wash tools, use the thinner and cleaner from the same ATOM range.
• A test spray on a waste surface saves a great deal of work on corrections.

Who the paint is for

• Modelers of figures and busts who build up skin tones
• Builders of dioramas with vegetation and civil scenes
• Wargamers and modelers of fantasy subjects
• Anyone who mixes their own warm pink shades

Store the paint out of reach of children, work in a well-ventilated area and close the bottle carefully after use.
