dynamicspartan Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Hi all, I play Dark Angels and recently decided to pick up some of Army Painters Angel Green spray to help paint some tanks. I love the results to say the least, but after going back and helping some shadows with washes and then tidying up with some dark angels green, they two wouldn't match. The DA green has more of a shine to it than the angels green. It stands out and messes with the overall look of the tank. I was wondering if anyone else has had simlilar situations with thier army painter and citadel paint mixed models and how they fixed it. Preferrably making the DA green dull like the army painter. Thanks everyone. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244181-citadel-paints-with-army-painter-spray/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchwing Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I actually just use the army painter spray as a basecoat and still drybrush the models with DA green and then highlight as usual because there isn't an exact match from citadel paints.

Warbringer Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Agree i try to use them as a basecoat and be really careful with everything else so i can highlight them using normal colours. I wish they did pots of their base colours as well as their primers would be awesome to allow touch ups Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244181-citadel-paints-with-army-painter-spray/#findComment-2953270 Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazychib Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I have only used their Greenskin and Pure Red primers, and found they were a perfect match for Snot Green and Blood Red.
