crazychib Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I was in a Halfords store today when I noticed that they stock a red primer. Has anybody here tried it, and if so, which GW paint does it match (if any)? I have been using Army Painter's Pure Red Primer for my Blood Angels, which matches GW's Blood Red, but I would love to find a cheaper alternative.

Venerable Jazzman Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I've used it on my Blood Angels, it's more of a Red Oxide colour than a bright red. Very good basecoat if you're painting red though, however it doesn't give much shading in the recesses.

Warbringer Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 The army painter dragon red is pretty good too. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239385-halfords-red-primer-uk/#findComment-2889494 Share on other sites More sharing options...
