About this deal

Chaos Space Marines: Doomfire Magenta can be used to create an eerie and intimidating look for Chaos Space Marines. This color can be used to highlight the details on their armor and weapons, giving them a menacing and otherworldly appearance. Emma: Such a rich, vibrant teal colour! It’s perfect for Seraphon and many other models – I have even thinned it down to make a spooky verdigris for Grand Alliance Death models. Contrast blues are some of the most saturated paints in the range, and Pylar Glacier exists to slot in between Aethermatic Blue and Talassar Blue .

I love using them as base colours for large armies and glazing over layers on highly detailed miniatures for extra colour saturation. The expansion of the Contrast range with new colours gives hobbyists an amazing opportunity to try different things! Doomfire Magenta is a unique color that can add depth and contrast to any Warhammer 40K army. Here are three armies that would benefit from this bold shade: Blood Angels Red and Flesh Tearers Red gave painters new ways to paint reds, and Baal Red opens up new possibilities thanks to its more saturated colour.Emma: Baal Red is a pure, bright red. It’s versatile and easy to blend with other Contrast paints like Magmadroth Flame. I have used it for gemstones, armour plates on Orks , and plasma effects on Chaos Space Marine weapons. Emma: Gutrippa Flesh is terrific and will save a lot of time when painting Kruleboyz or Gretchin as it gives an excellent base colour and shade that suits these boyz down to the ground. It’s really great for camo cloth too! So there you have it, pro-tips from one of our pro-painters! That’s just 10 of the 25 new Contrast paints – we’ve already had ideas for coruscating bolts of energy with Mantis Warrior Green and some filthy underhive terrain with Garaghak’s Sewer. The possibilities are truly endless!

Emma: This paint has a lovely jade-like tone, which is really intense and vivid. I love using it over Stormhost Silver on gemstones or thinned down for a different take on crystal blades than the usual blue.Aeldari Emerald is a colour unlike any in the current Contrast range, giving you a brand new choice for a whole range of effects. Emma: This colour is all about punch, it’s so bright and powerful. Doomfire Magenta straight out of the pot gives you a vivid pink for cloth or magic spells. It also suits Daughters of Khaine or Escher Gangers if you want some cool pink hair colours. It’s an incredibly exciting time to be a Warhammer hobbyist – the Citadel Colour range is expanding with 25 vivid and versatile new Contrast paints, the Shade range has been reformulated with a further seven new colours added, and a brand new bright white spray primer is coming! It’s a chromatic Christmas, and it’s still summer!

We suggest choosing Runelord Brass if you want copper-colored paint. The metallic sheen of this paint can give miniatures painted with Doomfire Magenta a more opulent appearance. To create a shiny and striking feature, Runelord Brass can be used to accent armor, weapons, or equipment. Doomfire Magenta from Citadel Colour is a bright and intense paint with a smooth and consistent consistency. It provides great coverage with a single coat and dries to a smooth, matte finish. The paint has finely ground pigments and is part of the Foundation range, making it ideal for use as a base coat or for achieving a bold and vibrant finish. It is an excellent addition to any painter’s palette and is suitable for both beginners and experienced miniature painters. What armies to paint with Doomfire Magenta Magos Purple and Shyish Purple were lighter Contrast paints, perfect for tinting and glazing . Out of the pot Luxion Purple provides a rich and luxurious layer. Temple Guard Blue for a teal shade, the blue-green hue of this paint contrasts beautifully with the pink undertones of Doomfire Magenta. Temple Guard Blue may give the miniatures depth and contrast when used as a highlight or accent. Emma: I’ve been painting for many years, and Contrast is one of the most fun and versatile paint ranges I’ve worked with. They are easy and fun to use, making armies faster than ever to paint.

Dark Eldar: Doomfire Magenta would be an excellent addition to a Dark Eldar army. This color can be used to add a vibrant pop of color to the dark, sleek armor of the Dark Eldar warriors. Emma: It’s so yellow! Bad Moon Yellow covers really well all over for a clean, sharp yellow that’s super bright. It’s great on armour panels for Bad Moons – of course – and Ironjawz! Tzeentch Daemons: Doomfire Magenta is a great fit for Tzeentch Daemons, whose color scheme includes a lot of pinks and purples. Adding this color to their wings or horns could really make them stand out on the battlefield.

Iyanden Yellow and Nazdreg Yellow were a dream for painters when they first dropped – easy-to-achieve yellows in one coat! Bad Moon Yellow provides an even brighter choice, especially over a White Scar undercoat. Emma: Regally vibrant, Luxion Purple keeps a bright tone even in the darker areas of your miniatures – great for Hedonites of Slaanesh and the Emperor’s Children . This is my favourite purple Contrast of all time!When selecting colors to combine with Doomfire Magenta, I suggest considering complementary and analogous color schemes to achieve a balanced look. Teal, copper, and pink colors can create a harmonious and interesting color combination with Doomfire Magenta. Teal and turquoise are crucial when painting lizards, magic effects, and Space Marines like the Alpha Legion – and Kroxigor Scales fits alongside Leviadon Blue and Akhelian Green to give you even more choice. A new alternative to Volupus Pink , Doomfire Magenta is lighter and brighter, opening up new avenues for painting pinkish tones.
