AK Interactive introduces the Dirty Yellow Quickgen Paint (AK17007) – a warm, earthy yellow with subtle ochre and dusty undertones. Designed for painters who seek realism and natural tones, this versatile color works beautifully for weathering, terrain, uniforms, and desert-themed miniatures.
The Quickgen range is made for the Contrast technique, allowing shadows, mid-tones, and highlights to appear in one coat. Thanks to its advanced acrylic formula, Dirty Yellow flows smoothly across surfaces, naturally settling in recesses and leaving lighter tones on raised details. The result: instant texture and believable depth in minutes.

Applications & inspiration:
Dirty Yellow is perfect for recreating sun-bleached surfaces, sand tones, and aged fabrics. Apply it over white primer for a bright ochre hue, or over brown/grey primers for a more weathered look. It pairs beautifully with Dark Sand or Khaki Brown for layered effects, and blends well with Bone Flesh for soft highlights. It’s also excellent for vehicles or troops from desert campaigns and post-apocalyptic settings.
This tone is included in the Desert Set (AK17514), a curated palette for painting arid environments and dusty bases. Comparable colors include Zamesi Desert (Citadel) and Desert Yellow (Vallejo Model Color), making integration with other ranges effortless.
Sustainability:
Dirty Yellow is eco-friendly, solvent-free, and safe. Its non-toxic water-based formulation ensures a comfortable and odorless painting experience, even during long sessions.
Who is it for?
Suitable for painters of all experience levels, Dirty Yellow offers balanced transparency and versatility. Beginners can easily achieve realistic finishes, while advanced hobbyists can use it for complex weathering, glazes, and contrast layering.
Bring warmth, sun, and life to your miniatures with Dirty Yellow Quickgen Paint – a timeless shade that adds authentic realism to any project.
