AK Interactive 3rd Gen Acrylic - Visceral Effects (AK11261)

Some effects only work if they look genuinely unpleasant, and Visceral Effects is squarely in that camp. It's a deep, dark red — the colour of fresh blood and exposed meat — with a glossy, wet finish that catches the light exactly the way a real wound would. Brush it into torn flesh, open jaws and battlefield gore and the model stops looking painted and starts looking hurt. Best for Fresh wounds, cuts and exposed flesh on figures Gore, guts and viscera on monsters and beasts Bloodied blades, claws and teeth Grisly detail on dioramas and bases Work it over a base colour rather than straight onto bare plastic — laid over a mid red or a pale flesh tone it gains real depth, and a little restraint goes a long way. A few well-placed drips read as far more convincing than a model drenched head to toe. Water-based acrylic — brush it straight from the bottle. Pair it with a gloss varnish where you want the wound still wet, and see the full AK 3rd Gen acrylics range for the flesh tones to lay it over.
