The Army Painter Midnight Olive (John Blanche) WP4012P

John Blanche Masterclass Series Paint

Midnight Olive is part of The Army Painter’s acclaimed John Blanche Masterclass Series, a collection of colours inspired by the distinctive artwork and painting style of John Blanche. Developed to complement the Warpaints Fanatic range, this muted olive shade provides painters with a versatile colour that is equally at home on fantasy miniatures, military subjects, science fiction models and display pieces.

Designed to work within the Flexible Triad System, Midnight Olive offers a balanced mid-tone that can be used as a foundation colour, shadow layer or transition shade between darker and lighter greens. Its subdued appearance makes it particularly useful for weathered fabrics, military equipment, cloaks, leather items, organic surfaces and natural scenery. The colour helps create realistic and atmospheric finishes without appearing overly bright or saturated.

The John Blanche Masterclass Series encourages painters to focus on texture, contrast and storytelling through colour. Midmight Olive fits naturally into this approach, providing a practical and adaptable shade that can add depth and realism to a wide range of painting projects. It blends effectively with other colours in both the John Blanche range and the wider Warpaints Fanatic collection, allowing painters to expand their existing palettes with ease.
