Citadel: Ratskin Flesh (Base)

Ratskin Flesh is a specialized base paint from Citadel's foundational range, formulated to deliver consistent coverage with a distinctive sickly brown-grey tone. This purpose-built shade excels at rendering vermin skin, diseased flesh, and corrupted surfaces on fantasy miniatures and creature models. The paint's balanced pigmentation ensures smooth application across brush and airbrush mediums without excessive thinning, while providing reliable adhesion to primed surfaces. Its muted, unsettling character creates an outstanding foundation for layering and glazing techniques, allowing painters to develop grotesque textures and atmospheric effects while maintaining the color's inherent authenticity and visual impact on the tabletop.
