Citadel Layer - Calgar Blue - 12ml

Citadel Layer – Calgar Blue (12ml)

Calgar Blue is a bright, vibrant blue hue from the Citadel Layer paint range. This paint is specially formulated for building up highlights and colour gradations over an existing basecoat. Thanks to its fine pigment structure and smooth consistency, Calgar Blue is ideal for accentuating edges, raised details, and armour panels.

The colour is renowned as a classic highlight for blue power armour and is widely used in iconic Warhammer colour schemes.

Perfect for highlights and edge highlighting

Citadel Layer paints are designed to be applied in thin, controlled layers. Calgar Blue is particularly well-suited for edge highlighting on blue armour, where it emphasizes edges and sharp details.

Its lighter and brighter tone compared to deeper blues easily creates contrast and visual depth on your miniature. With multiple thin layers, you can also create smooth transitions between different blue shades.

Widely used in blue armour schemes

Calgar Blue is a popular colour for painting power armour, shields, and weapons. The bright hue works excellently as a highlight over darker blue layers, ensuring details remain clearly visible on the tabletop from a distance.

Besides armour, the paint can also be used for energy effects, banners, heraldry, or other decorative elements where a strong blue colour is desired.

User-friendly hobby paint

The paint comes in the recognizable 12ml Citadel paint pot. The formula is suitable for brush painting and can be easily thinned for techniques such as layering, glazing, or soft colour transitions.

Calgar Blue integrates perfectly with the Citadel Colour system and combines well with other Citadel paints to create complete colour gradations and highlights on miniatures.
