AK Interactive Quick Gen - Leather 18ml (AK17053)

Every miniature's got leather on it somewhere — boots, belts, pouches, saddle straps — and AK's Quick Gen Leather is the shade built to knock the lot out in one pass. It's a resin-based, contrast-style paint: brush it over a light primer and it pools into the recesses while pulling back off the raised detail, leaving proper depth without a separate shade or highlight step. If you've got a unit to finish this weekend, this is the colour that does the heavy lifting.

Best for

• Boots, belts, pouches, straps and saddlery on any miniature
• Speed-painting units over a white or light grey primer
• Shading and highlighting leatherwork in a single coat

How to use

• Apply over a light-coloured primer so the pigment has something to pool against
• Give the bottle a proper shake first — the pigment settles in the base
• Thin slightly with water or AK's own medium if it's dragging on larger areas

One coat, dry, and that model's leatherwork is done — on to the next colour in the queue.
