Humbrol Leather Enamel Matt Paint 14ml (62)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Humbrol Matt leather Humbrol. A name from the past. In the old days (of the Centauri republic), we had Airfix, Hasegawa, Tamiya, Revell, Monogram…and then to paint them we had Airfix own-brand enamels, Humbrol, with a massive range sub-divided into eras and subjects (Napoleonic, ancients, Vietnam era USAF camouflage…) Humbrol is still very much active but its ranges, enamel and acrylic are often overlooked. There is more correspondence over which brand of acrylics is superior, some consideration to oils, thanks to masters such as Marco Frissoni, but enamels are rarely mentioned. They are superior to nothing. When painting miniatures the only ‘wrong’ colours are white metal and raw plastic. Humbrol’s range is quite extensive in both media but I prefer them for the bread and butter stuff. Matt Leather being one such. It does what it says on the tin, and it is a tin. It and its kin, Matt flesh, natural wood, gloss black, are all that are necessary to paint the majority surface of most miniatures. I will often prime, then go over with this and its kin to get a model started. If I have time I will go over that with an acrylic which might have more subtle properties.
