Citadel Layer: Eshin Grey (12ml) 
A dark, neutral charcoal-grey Layer paint made for smooth highlights and clean layering—perfect for black armour highlights, weapons, cloth, stone, and any grimdark scheme that needs definition without jumping to a bright grey.
 
What it does
Formulated for crisp highlights and building up layers over Base paints.
Dries to a smooth matt finish for tidy, readable results.
Water-based acrylic, easy to thin for controlled layering and glazing.
 
How to use
Apply over a darker base (black, very dark grey, or dark brown-grey).
Thin slightly and build up 2–3 thin layers on raised areas and edges.
For “black armour” highlights, keep it tight on edges and corners rather than broad panels.
 
Best for
Highlighting black (armour trim, weapons, boots, cloth)
Stone, rubble, ruins, and neutral weathered surfaces
Grimdark midtones and “soot” shading

ChalkyDot Tip: For fast, clean black highlights: edge highlight with Eshin Grey, then add a tiny final spot highlight with a lighter grey only on the sharpest corners—your black stays black, but reads super crisp from tabletop distance.
