Karhedron Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Halfords black primer might be worth a try. Although listed as "black", it is definitely a lighter shade than Chaos black or abaddon black.

Sky Potato Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 If the colour you’re looking for is similar to Citadel Corvus Black, as opposed to Abaddon Black, then maybe give Raven Black by Colour Forge a try?

Cleon Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 I use Colour forge Raven Black as my go to undercoat now. It's slighly more fragile to weather conditions than the citadel one in my experience, but certainly not a problem if basic temperature/humidity precautions are taken. I find it ever so slightly less black (more grey) than corvus, but still much blacker than Esshin grey - it's also slightly matter than chaos black. I'm not sure if it works exactly for what you want, but it sounds a good shout.

Firedrake Cordova Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 I've not used it, but would Vallejo Hobby Paint Panzer Grey be a match? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386321-dark-charcoal-rattle-can-recommendations/#findComment-6123642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor_Lensoven Posted July 22 Author Share Posted July 22 The paint won’t be an undercoat, it will be just the color used. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386321-dark-charcoal-rattle-can-recommendations/#findComment-6123647 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not tried the hobby paint, but assuming it's similar to Vallejo model color panzer grey, it's about as black as Esshin grey, but with a distinguishable blue tint.
