AK Interactive presents Space Red Quickgen Paint (AK17034) – a bold, earthy red tone that adds warmth and realism to any miniature. Space Red bridges the gap between vivid red and natural brown, making it ideal for armor, cloth, and leather. It’s a grounded, robust color that evokes strength and age.
The Quickgen range is built for painters who want fast, expressive results with full tonal control. With medium coverage, the paint flows evenly, forming natural shadows and highlights in a single stroke. The matte finish enhances realism and preserves surface detail.
Visual color interpretation:
A muted, warm red with subtle brown undertones. Over light primer, it appears as baked red clay; over dark primer, it deepens into mahogany or dried blood. Evokes the feel of worn armor, Martian dust, or rusted metal – perfect for sci-fi themes and rugged realism.

Applications & inspiration:
Space Red is perfect for battle-worn armor, cloth, leather, or mechanical parts. Combine with Crimson Red (AK17031) for rich shadows or Warm Orange (AK17009) for highlights. Works beautifully alongside Plague Yellow (AK17013) and Dirty Yellow (AK17007) for weathered effects.
Included in the Space Core Set (AK17542), this color sits tonally between Mephiston Red (Citadel) and Flat Red (Vallejo), offering smoother transitions and a softer matte finish optimized for contrast work.
Sustainability:
Like all Quickgen paints, Space Red is eco-friendly, solvent-free, and water-based. Odorless, fast-drying, and safe – ideal for prolonged use in any workspace.
Who is it for?
Suitable for all painters. Beginners achieve strong results with ease, while advanced artists can explore its rich tonal range and blending capability. A warm, grounded red for any army or diorama.
