About product

An ink in the shade of red-hot steel

A warm red with an orange core, the kind metal has when it is drawn from the forge. The line of inks offers a concentrated liquid pigment that is applied in fine coats and shifts the color of what lies beneath. Thanks to that a transition can be built smoothly from dark steel all the way to the places that are meant to look red-hot.

The most frequent uses

  • Glowing gun barrels, exhausts and fireboxes
  • Embers and hot remains in a diorama
  • A warm tint over metallic shades
  • Fiery motifs on fantasy vehicles

Proceeding in layers

You will get the best results by grading it. Start from the darkest place, leave it unchanged and add the ink toward the core of the heat, where the color is to be most saturated. Let each coat dry through, otherwise the edges run together and the transition loses its depth. Over a silver or brass base a metallic shine with a warm undertone appears, while over matte black the impression is deep and smoldering instead.

Suitable for

Modelers who work with effects of fire and heat, makers of forges and workshop scenes and painters of fantasy subjects. Try the transitions on a test piece first, so that you can judge the right number of coats. The shade will bring life even to older builds where a forge or a firebox has looked flat until now. Do not rush the drying between coats; that time comes back in the sharpness of the transition.

Store out of the reach of children, ventilate while working and protect your eyes and skin. Information on thinning and on cleaning tools is given on the packaging.

FAQ

By adding coats gradually toward the hottest place. Let each coat dry through, so that the edges do not run together.

Yes, over a metallic base a warm shine appears. Over matte black the result looks more smoldering and muted.

It will serve as a warm accent over rusty areas, but rust itself is better built with brown and ocher tones.
