The pigment strength is the best out of the whites I’ve tried so far, like most Model Color paints the consistency is a bit on the thicker side, but for drybrushing, that’s actually a plus, and with a wet palette or a drop of water you can thin it easily without losing much opacity. Matt White from The Army Painter’s Warpaints range and Morrow White from Privateer Press were better, and applied more smoothly, but in the end, the white of Vallejo’s Model Color range became my favourite. Skull White and White Scar were lousy, Vallejo Game Color White didn’t impress me either. Over the years I’ve tested the pigment strength of several pure white paints. Once dry, you can easily highlight with Corax White and pure white to add some contrast for a fantastic white/off-white with a lot of depth. ![]() It’s great for shading Corax White or pure white, the finish is pretty smooth so you can even apply it over flat armour panels without too much pooling. This Contrast paint is a very unique light grey wash with a blue-greyish hue. I also use it as a base colour for applying Contrast paints, because when you make a mistake over any areas primed with Corax White spray paint, a single coat of Corax White base paint is often enough to cover any paint spills, unlike say Wraithbone base paint, for which I often need three or four thin coats to cover up because the opacity is much lower (and it also dries chalky when applied too thickly). I love to use it as a base colour for painting white, and also as an undercoat for lighter colours such as bone or yellow. It covers perfectly in two to three slightly thinned coats over pure black, in one to two coats over lighter colours. ![]() However, it makes up for it with its astounding opacity and smoothness. Now, the consistency of base paint Corax White can be slightly hit or miss as pigments and medium separate easily, so heavy shaking and an occasional stirring with a cocktail stick is needed before use. The spray paint works well as a primer, just remember to apply two or three thin coats instead of a single thick coat that might clog up the details. ![]() ![]() I like that it appears almost white, but you are still able to add some depth with a highlight of pure white. It’s available as a spray paint but was also released as a base paint a while ago. Corax White spray & base paint from Games WorkshopĬorax White is actually not a pure white but a very very light grey. They make a great triad for basecoating, shading, and highlighting:ġ. Here are my favourite three white paints. ![]()
