The Army Painter: Wash - Orange Tone

Orange Tone is a vibrant orange‑brown shading wash — brighter and more fiery than Rust Tone, warmer and more energetic than Sepia Tone, and sitting perfectly in that “sun‑lit shadow with a punch of heat” zone. It’s the wash painters reach for when they want shading that feels warm, alive, and full of energy.

Why Painters Reach for It

• Warm orange shading ideal for yellows, oranges, tans, leather, bone, and fiery effects

• Adds lively warmth without muddying or dulling bright colors

• Perfect for flame‑themed minis or palettes where you want shadows to glow instead of darken

• Flows smoothly into recesses for crisp, readable contrast with a warm kick

Painter’s Vibe

Orange Tone brings that “sunset shadow, ember‑warm depth, glowing recess heat” energy — perfect for fire mages, desert warriors, bright fantasy palettes, and any miniature that thrives in warm, energetic shading.
