Abteilung 502 Oil Paint – Faded Flesh (AKABT190)

Faded Flesh is a flexible base for figure skin, and a surprisingly useful filter tone besides. Lay it down as a starting point, then layer other flesh tones over the top the more you mix, the more intense and dramatic the result, and the bigger the figure the more that variety matters. It does quiet work as a subtle filter on vehicles too, taking the edge off a scheme without shouting about it.

Best for

• A base coat for figure skin, built up in layers
• Blending into other Abteilung 502 flesh tones
• Subtle filters on vehicle paintwork

Thin it right and those first layers barely show, letting the flesh tones you add later do the talking the starting point for skin you build real character into.

A dependable base for layered flesh. Blend it out with a soft filbert brush, and keep a tube of Flesh Shadow to hand for when the transitions need to go darker.
