Citadel Technical “Contrast Medium” (24 ml) is a colour‑free acrylic medium specifically designed for Citadel’s Technical range. It allows painters to adjust the flow, transparency, and final effect of contrast paints and washes without altering the base colour. This provides greater control and subtlety in effects while keeping the painting workflow simple and consistent.
The finish appears as a transparent, low‑viscosity liquid that, when mixed with contrast paints or washes, reduces opacity while preserving the “colour settling into recesses” effect. Unlike adding water, using Contrast Medium maintains surface tension, prevents water‑marks, and keeps pigments in the recesses for optimal visual results. It allows saturation and intensity adjustments without needing a new paint layer.
In terms of applications, this product is particularly useful for:
With its precise, controlled use, Contrast Medium is suitable for both beginners wanting to manage effect intensity and experienced modellers seeking greater subtlety and refinement. It is a discreet but powerful addition to the Technical range, offering more freedom in creating visually striking effects.
