The Army Painter and this channel actually have a pretty long history. Almost as soon as I had started out - before I even crossed 5000 subscribers - I was contacted by the team to ask, "Hey, do you want some paint?" They were one of the earliest to support the channel, and definitely the first company to do so, which I'd prefer to remind folks of and be totally up front about considering this is a review of a new product.
All the same, you've seen me use Army Painter products on the channel regularly. Primers, paints - shout-out to my favourite, Tanned Flesh! - mixes of their washes, and more besides. It's a range of products that I've happily used for years, but there's no denying some parts of the range have historically performed more consistently or simply better than others.
The Warpaints Fanatic range of newly formulated paints aims to address that, and I genuinely think it does a good job of it. The consistency issues and difficulty in mixing some of the paints are solved, and some of my old favourites from the Warpaints line have improved coverage as well. It's a solid upgrade, and I'm looking forward to adding a lot more of the new Fanatic range to my collection. Got my eye on Gunmetal in particular!
So thank you again to The Army Painter for hooking me up with a bunch of the new range to test and paint with for a while. I tried to sample a range of different colours and use cases before weighing in with my opinion, and I'm pretty happy with the end result. There are still a few colours either for matching or coverage that I prefer in other ranges - considering I have about eight different paint collections now, that's kinda expected - but the Fanatic range are going to be a reliable choice in anybody's paint rack when they hit general release.
