Description
Tarnished Black is a rich charcoal-black with softened undertones—designed to replicate the look of aged, worn metal or naturally darkened materials. Unlike jet black, it adds depth and realism without overwhelming other tones. This makes it excellent for shading, weathering, or creating natural variation in dark surfaces. Whether you're building grimy locomotives, sooty industrial settings, or muted fantasy armor, Tarnished Black adds an authentic, nuanced finish.

Tarnished Black is available in these sets:
Item #29384 Railroad Model Color Paint Set

Item #29433 Basic Acrylic Painting Set with Brushes, Mediums & Empty Bottles, 89-Piece

 

Modeling Use Cases
• Rolling Stock & Railroads: Undercarriages, vents, axle housings

• Industrial Dioramas: Soot-blackened walls, exhaust pipes, steel surfaces
• Fantasy & Sci-Fi: Shadowed armor, cloaks, dark metal panels

Tip: Use Tarnished Black instead of pure black for a more natural, less harsh look. Great for pre-shading, edge blending, or mixing with other colors to tone them down.
