The Craziest Rumours, Definately Not A Scam!

Nobody expected the colour that Chapter Master Valrak chose for his Signature Series primer!
No! It’s not taken from 1 half of an Iron Warrior’s hazard stripe! It’s not even the colour of 4 squares from a glorious bakery’s logo. But we were thrilled when he chose Valrak Yellow!

But it just goes to prove what we’ve said from the start; these colours are 100% chosen by the creators themselves.

That’s why we have such a variety. Why we have colour-matched primers in some cases, alongside unique colours in others. This is also why we have a new yellow. Very much neighbours to each other on a colour wheel, but for very different uses, much like how you would use Ashen Grey and Dead Animal Bits for very different projects.

Valrak:

“Yellow is one of my most favourite colours, it was one of the main reasons I painted a certain gene enhanced super legion many, many years ago. It not only fortifies your soul, it also makes anything you paint x10 cooler! It’s also a colour that has many different hues and tones. I really wanted a golden type of yellow and with working over the years I’ve managed to get that colour perfected.

Before I had to use a different combination of paints and glazes, but now working with ColourForge we’ve achieved that in one perfect can of paint! One of the main reasons I decided to work with colour forge on this project is down to the community behind me, they also asked how I achieved my yellow and how they could get the same results, now they can. I look forward to seeing more people paint their way to glory with VALRAK YELLOW and show how badass they truly are!”

Valrak straight away asked us to colour-match his marines at the endpoint of this process. Rather than send us a swatch, a colour code, or a sample of something seen somewhere that caught an eye, Val sent us a tank… One of his many, many tanks!

Not wanting to shy away from any challenge, we matched the colour he was looking for and mimicked the end steps in his paint scheme (a yellow primer followed by multiple yellow glazes). The only thing he has to do now is throw a coat of Valrak Yellow on the model and then start picking out details in other colours! Now this unique and interesting colour is offered to you.
