About product

ATOM COLOR Duck Blue: a modeling paint from AMMO of Mig Jimenez from the ATOM range

The shade is named in full ATOM COLOR Duck Blue and in the ATOM range it is placed among the blue tones, with aquamarine and sapphire blue standing right beside it. The name duck blue is a common term for a blue with an admixture of green, that is a tone close to the teal or turquoise area. Watch out for a mix-up: the range also carries separately a shade named Duck Egg, which is an established term for an entirely different, markedly lighter color of the RAF. These are two different items.

Where you will use the color

  • Blue-green surfaces on models, accessories and dioramas
  • Civilian vehicles, car bodies, ship hulls and interiors
  • Figures and gaming subjects where a cool blue is needed
  • Water surfaces and effects on dioramas
  • Mixing teal and turquoise tones of your own

Who the color is for

The paint suits modelers looking for a more striking blue with a shift toward green, whether on civilian vehicles, on ships, or on figures and gaming bases. It also proves itself as an additional tone for mixing, because it lies between pure blue and turquoise. If you are after the light shade of the RAF, reach for the item marked Duck Egg, not for this one.

What to bear in mind when working

Mix the paint thoroughly before use, so that the shade is the same throughout the bottle. Apply it in several thin coats rather than one heavy one; the engraved detail and the edges of a casting then stay legible. Try the shade first on an offcut of sprue, because the same paint looks different on a light base and on a dark one. For the method of application, the drying time and the preparation of the surface, go by the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging. Work in a well-ventilated room and keep the paint out of the reach of children.
