The Speed of the Angel’s Wing

Achieve Vibrant, Battle-Ready Reds in a Single Coat.

Blood Angels Red is a standout performer in the revolutionary Contrast line. Designed for speed and efficiency, this paint acts as a base, shade, and highlight all at once. When applied over a light primer, it delivers a rich, aggressive crimson that is perfect for the iconic sons of Sanguinius, the terrifying forces of Khorne, or any model that needs a bold, high-impact red.

Why Blood Angels Red is a Hobby Essential

  • The "One-Coat" Revolution: Contrast paint is designed to settle into recesses for deep shadows while receding from raised edges to leave a natural highlight. This allows you to get an entire army "tabletop ready" in a fraction of the traditional time.

  • Vibrant Pigment Power: Unlike some reds that can look thin or watery, Blood Angels Red is known for its incredible intensity. It produces a deep, saturated finish that remains bright and eye-catching.

  • Perfect for Large Surfaces: The formula has a fantastic flow rate, making it easier to apply over the flat panels of Power Armour without the streaking often associated with traditional washes.

  • Versatility in Shading: While it is a "red" paint, it can be thinned with Contrast Medium to create custom glazes or to add a reddish tint to leather, gems, and glowing energy effects.

How to Master Blood Angels Red

  1. The Correct Primer: To get the best results, always apply Blood Angels Red over a smooth light base like Wraithbone or Grey Seer. Wraithbone will give the red a warmer, richer tone, while Grey Seer will make it look cooler and more modern.

  2. Controlled Application: Use a large, soft brush and apply a generous coat, but keep the paint moving. Avoid "over-brushing" an area once it has started to dry to ensure a smooth, even finish.

  3. Removing Pools: If the paint starts to "pool" too heavily in a single area, quickly use a clean, dry brush to wick away the excess before it sets. This ensures your shadows remain crisp rather than messy.
