## Description

Citadel Nuln Oil Paint - Wh Colour - Shade Model Paint - 18ml

Review: Good shade - This is great for getting details darkened in a pinch and to add higher quality to painted models. Greatly priced too as it comes in a slightly bigger container than other citadel paints. Easy to use and can quickly clean off the oil if you applied too much. A little dab can help you cover up all those hard to reach spots on the miniatures. I have posted a picture of the nuln oil container compared to a regular sized bottle. Keep in mind that this isn't a paint and is more of a shading for dried painted models.
Review: Makes my mediocre painting, look great. - Shades very well and covers my mistakes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes my mediocre painting, look great.
*by J***T on September 23, 2025*

Shades very well and covers my mistakes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wash worked well for weathering over Tamiya paints.
*by P***N on April 2, 2025*

I had not used oil-based products in my modeling efforts, so I decided to buy this after seeing it used in a YouTube video. It worked well when I used it to weather some styrene objects painted with Tamiya surfacer. I will continue to experiment with its use over acrylic-painted items.
