Base Wraithbone

Citadel Base: Wraithbone – The perfect base paint for Contrast Paints and natural tones

Citadel Base Wraithbone is a warm, off-white base paint that provides an even, opaque undercoat for both traditional painting and Contrast paints. Its soft, creamy tone gives colours a warmer and more natural appearance than a pure white base, making Wraithbone one of the most popular choices among Warhammer hobbyists.

It works just as well for light-coloured armour and bone materials as it does for creating the perfect undercoat for Contrast painting.

What is Wraithbone used for?

Wraithbone is ideal for:

• Undercoating before applying Contrast paints
• Bones, horns and claws
• Light-coloured armour and cloaks
• Parchment and scrolls
• Wood and natural materials
• Fantasy and sci-fi miniatures

It works both as a finished base paint and as an undercoat for further painting.

Why choose Citadel Base Wraithbone?

Wraithbone is one of the most versatile base paints in the Citadel Colour range. It is used not only as a standard base paint, but also as one of the best undercoats for Contrast Paints thanks to its warm off-white tone.

If you paint many different armies or enjoy working with Contrast paints, Wraithbone is a colour you’ll use time and time again. It provides an even finish, highlights the model’s details, and works on everything from skeletons and armour to monsters and terrain.
