Product Information
Full details
Warhammer Screamer Pink Base Paint is an essential tool for hobbyists and miniature painters who need a reliable, high-pigment foundation for their models. This 12ml acrylic paint offers exceptional coverage and a professional matte finish, making it perfect for both beginners and experienced collectors looking to achieve vibrant results efficiently. While it provides excellent opacity, users should note that as a base paint, it is primarily optimized for laying down solid color rather than subtle layering or glazing techniques.

FAQs
Do I need to prime my model before using Screamer Pink?
Yes, for the best adhesion and longevity, always prime your miniatures with a standard hobby primer before applying base paints.
Can I use this paint in an airbrush?
While it is formulated for brush application, it can be used in an airbrush if thinned appropriately with a suitable airbrush thinner.
Is this paint water-soluble?
Yes, it is a water-based acrylic, meaning it can be thinned with water and brushes can be cleaned with soap and water.
How many layers should I apply?
Due to the high pigment count, one layer is often sufficient, though two thin layers are recommended for a perfectly smooth finish.
What is the shelf life of an opened pot?
If kept tightly sealed and stored away from heat, it can last for several years.
Is this paint non-toxic?
Yes, the paint is non-toxic and suitable for use in standard hobby environments.
Troubleshooting
Paint looks streaky or uneven.
The paint may be too thick. Add a very small drop of water to your palette and mix thoroughly before applying.
Paint is clumping inside the pot.
This usually indicates the pot was not sealed tightly. Ensure the lid is pressed firmly until you hear a distinct click.
Paint is rubbing off the miniature.
Ensure the miniature was properly primed before painting and avoid handling the model until the base coat has fully cured.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure your miniature is properly cleaned and primed. Using a high-quality hobby brush, transfer a small amount of Screamer Pink to a wet palette to maintain its consistency. If the paint appears too thick, add a tiny amount of water to achieve a smooth, milk-like flow.
After use, ensure the lid is snapped firmly shut to prevent the acrylic medium from drying out. Store your pots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To clean your brushes, wash them thoroughly in warm water immediately after painting, as dried acrylic paint can quickly ruin synthetic and natural brush bristles.
