AK Interactive introduces the Space Magenta Quickgen Paint (AK17001) – a vibrant, high-coverage acrylic designed to bring sci-fi miniatures and fantasy figures to life in a single stroke. Developed for the Contrast technique, it naturally flows over your model, pooling in the recesses and highlighting raised areas to create instant depth.
The Quickgen range revolutionizes miniature painting by condensing multiple stages – base, shade, and highlight – into one simple step. Each color features next-generation acrylic resin that enhances surface flow, prevents staining, and ensures a uniform matte finish. Perfect for painters who want fast, beautiful results without sacrificing precision.

Like the entire Quickgen line, Space Magenta is water-based, non-toxic, and solvent-free. It’s safe, eco-friendly, and ideal for painters who value performance with environmental responsibility.
