Warpaints Fanatic Flexible Triad: Ochres & Tans

The Flexible Triad: Ochres & Tans brings arid landscapes and dry wasteland to life. These colours capture the nuances of dunes, rocky outcrops, and scorched vegetation of desert expanses, dry riverbeds, and barren wastelands. You can also use them to create weathering effects such as sun-fading on vehicles and dust accumulation on armour. This triad is a must-have when painting Non-Metallic Metal gold.

The Ochres & Tans Triad is suitable for projects across all genres of miniature painting, from historical and military figures to fantasy creatures and sci-fi models.

The Flexible Triad: Ochres & Tans consists of:

• Warpaints Fanatic: Tundra Taupe
• Warpaints Fanatic: Prairie Ochre
• Warpaints Fanatic: Desert Yellow
• Warpaints Fanatic: Wasteland Clay
• Warpaints Fanatic: Burnt Turf
• Warpaints Fanatic: Barren Dune

The Flexible Colour Triad System is a segment, or family, of six colours that range from dark to light with a consistent hue. This system allows you to easily select paints that create a natural colour progression on your miniatures. This is an easy way to create a colour scheme for your miniature when army painting because you always have 27 Flexible Triads to choose from instead of mixing colours.

The system builds upon the traditional triad system by introducing more versatility and adaptability in colour selection, expanding the conventional three colours to six. This gives you almost endless possibilities for putting colours together within the triad.

When using a triad system, you usually select 3 colours (a base, a shade, and a highlight), depending on the level of contrast you want on your miniature. For instance, for minimal contrast, opt for 3 adjacent colours to achieve a smooth colour transition. For maximum contrast, use the lightest, middle, and darkest colour available in the flexible triad.
