Hive Fleet Purple 2 (12ML)

Tone Pro is built around intense colours with strong coverage, including shades that can traditionally be more demanding to work with. Hive Fleet Purple 2 can be applied straight from the pot, while its self-levelling properties help produce an even, consistent surface. This makes it possible to establish a solid colour layer without having to rely on a complex application process.

Each Tone Pro colour follows a clear five-shade progression: Shade 1 is the darkest and Shade 5 is the lightest. Shade 2 therefore occupies an important position near the darker end of the scale. It can reinforce the areas established with Shade 1, provide a transition towards Shades 3, 4 and 5, or simply serve as the dominant tone when a darker overall finish is desired.

• Basecoats for establishing an even foundation
• Shading to deepen recessed areas and definition
• Glazing to adjust and transition between tones
• Highlights to bring selected areas forward
• Drybrushing to pick out raised textures and details

Because the same paint can fulfil several roles, Hive Fleet Purple 2 can remain useful throughout different stages of a painting session. Pair it with Shade 1 to establish deeper contrast, then work upwards through the lighter stages for a complete progression. Alternatively, combine it with just a few brighter tones when you want to keep the workflow focused while retaining clear changes in luminosity.
