The Army Painter Pine Hollow Shade (John Blanche) WP4111P

John Blanche Masterclass Series Wash

Pine Hollow Shade is part of The Army Painter’s John Blanche Masterclass Series, a collection of paints and washes inspired by the distinctive artwork and painting philosophy of John Blanche. Developed to complement the Warpaints Fanatic range, this specialised shade is designed to create natural shadows, subtle weathering and atmospheric depth across a wide variety of miniature painting projects.

Designed to work alongside the Flexible Triad System, Pine Hollow Shade flows naturally into recessed details, folds and textured surfaces, helping painters enhance depth and definition with minimal effort. Its natural earthy character makes it particularly useful for vegetation, fabrics, leather, wood, terrain features and organic textures. The wash creates smooth transitions between highlights and shadows while maintaining surface detail.

The John Blanche Masterclass Series encourages painters to focus on storytelling, mood and texture. Pine Hollow Shade supports this approach by providing a versatile shading colour that can be used to create realistic weathering, deepen natural tones and unify colour schemes. Whether used over greens, browns, greys or muted colours, it helps create a cohesive and atmospheric finish.

Explore the full John Blanche paints range to discover complementary colours designed to work together within the Flexible Triad System.

Suitable for brush application, Pine Hollow Shade can be applied directly for stronger shadow effects or diluted for more subtle tonal variation. It is equally effective on fantasy miniatures, historical figures, military subjects, terrain projects and display models where additional depth and realism are desired.
