Citadel Base: Screamer Pink (12ml) – 2019
A rich, dark hot-pink / magenta Base paint with strong coverage—perfect for Slaanesh tones, vivid cloth, daemon skin, banners, and anywhere you want a saturated pink foundation that still shades beautifully.
 
What it does
Gives a solid basecoat thanks to a high pigment count (Base paints are made for coverage).
Dries to a smooth matt finish for clean, consistent colour.
Designed for the classic workflow: Base → Shade → Layer.
 
How to use
Prime your model (black for deeper shadows, light primer for a brighter pink result).
Apply 1–2 thin coats for the smoothest finish.
Shade recesses, then build highlights with lighter pinks/lilacs to push it toward “neon” or “pastel” looks.
 
Best for
Slaanesh / chaos accents, cloth, banners, capes
Magenta armour panels, gems, lenses, magical effects
As a strong undercoat for bright pink highlights (without losing richness)

ChalkyDot Tip: Want maximum “pop”? Base with Screamer Pink, then highlight toward a pale lilac-pink on the highest edges—your shadows stay rich and the model reads vibrant even from tabletop distance.
