When your normal (and much cheaper), matte black acrylic paint just won't do: link "Black 3.0 is the blackest and mattest acrylic paint on the planet. Unlike other super-black coatings it can be safely applied with nothing more than a brush, and we've worked super hard to make it affordable. " It's a fun read, but nothing I'd use for mini painting… ;-) |

Isn't there a rule to never use black, because nothing on a battlefield is truly black? |

Not my boondockers or my socks … maybe my heart. |

Handy for a model of a black hole I guess. Otherwise I very rarely use straight black |

I looks useful for certain things I am painting for 15mm science fiction. I'll put in an order and see how it works. |

I rarely use white, but black I do use. Maybe nothing is for long, I suppose. |

Would love to paint my truck with it, all but lights and windows. |

Actually, thinking about this, I might get some for some spec ops guys I have. I'm thinking it would make they actually stand out against other black stuff on the board. |

Black dry brushed with a few various shades of grey … |

Just remember you can't use a sealer on it, otherwise it loses it's 99% light absorbing qualities. Pricewise, it might be comparable to GW paint… ;-) |

Black dry brushed with a few various shades of grey … That's what I do now.
I was just wondering if the dark black would make them "pop" in a different way. |
