Citadel Technical “Nihilakh Oxide” is a water-based acrylic paint designed to convincingly recreate the greenish oxidation of copper or bronze on your miniatures. Thanks to its specialised formula, it can be applied as a heavy wash or glaze over metallic paints, naturally settling into recesses to create a realistic and striking patina effect.
The resulting finish mimics aged metal covered with the distinctive blue-green layer seen on statues, armour or decorative pieces exposed to the elements. It is best applied over a metallic base such as bronze or copper. Simply brush on a thin coat, allow the paint to flow into recesses, and gently wipe away the excess from raised areas to keep the effect only where natural oxidation would occur.
This paint is ideal for enhancing details such as aged armour, steampunk mechanisms, industrial vehicles or corroded ancient war machines. It is equally effective for basing and scenery where metal has weathered over time. The subtle blue-green tone instantly conveys age and exposure to the elements. With this finish, your miniatures will stand out with added realism and visual depth, while remaining easy to apply even for hobbyists of all levels.
