We really are spoilt for choice these days, Proacryl are such nice rich paints for base colours, Vallejo have every shade of colour possible, GW inks and contrasts... It's so nice to be able to pick and choose and build your own paint range that suits you exactly. When I started as a very small dumb kid all I knew was that there was either Citadel for acrylics or Humbrol for enamels and that was it.

Vallejo knocked it really out of the park with their Xpress range for me. Being able to thin them down with water to a glaze consistency makes them so versatile for me. They do stuff you would usually use an ink for but with a lot more control over saturation

@Valandar2 Ай бұрын

I would think the perfect tile for contrast testing would have four corners with grooves between: a rounded shape, a flat shape, and a concave shape with sharp edges, and in the fourth corner a pattern like chain maille or scales. This would let you see how it paints on everything.

Mystic Blue is thin enough it can be used to punch up darker colors that would otherwise lack luminosity. My Tyranids start with lightly thinned ultramarine blue, but the highlights of that are just too bland, so mystic blue on top just enhances the highlights to 11.

I totally agree with you about the Contrast blues. Ultramarines Blue and Frostheart works well, possibly because they're more opaque, but I've not had much luck with Asurmen Blue, Tallasar Blue or Celestium Blue. No matter what I do with those 3 blues, they seem to dry patchy with inconsistent coverage. Whereas the contrast yellows, reds and browns seem to work really nicely with smooth transitions.

@JuanHidalgoMiniatures Ай бұрын

That's my experience as well

@insertuniqueusernamehere Ай бұрын

@@JuanHidalgoMiniaturesthanks for that. If you're having the same experience as me, the issue almost certainly is with the paint itself. I'll look into the Vallejo Express Colours blues as replacements (yet to buy any Express Colours).

Hi. Just wanna mention that you MUST try out AK Xtreme color. It is a metalic airbrush paint. Steel is 99% like Citadel Ironbreaker. And Gunmetal is almost the same like Leadbelcher. They are the best metal airbrush paint what I have ever used. It is uuuuuuuultra thin, covers like hell and looks amazing. They have maybe 20+ metal paints. I consider it as a liefehack. It have a special cleaner and it's amazing too.

@attiladukai2121 Ай бұрын

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures yes they are aorbrush paints. Enamels based, so it would destroy your brushes. The thinner is odorless, so unlike other enamel thinners it will not cause you headache.

Howdy. I think the range of colors when it comes to painting miniatures is now very impressive. What was unimaginable in my time back then is what exists today. I still have a few old paint pots from Citadel from the 90s. the color is still good 😀 but very very cool video. thank you for the comparison. I also need to expand my palette a bit. also use a balanced mix of citadel contrast and xpress colors. both have their strengths and weaknesses. I don't really like the xpress color, orc skin, as an example. I think it's too light for greenskins. and the ork skin Contrast is too comic-like for me personally after drying. I mixed plaque green and Troll green from xpress as a test and it worked. I now mostly paint in slapchop style. I really like the results. At the moment I just don't have the time with a child for a standard painting 😅 Maybe Junior will jump on the bandwagon at some point and we'll paint together. Have a nice sunday.

Out of curiosity have you ever looked into professional(artist) grade paints? There are dark blues like anthraquinone, cobalt(modern stuff isnt toxic), and what not as well as yellows in brands like lascaux, golden, liquitex, holbein, etc than the scale 75 heavy bodied acrylics and have higher pigmentations as the scale 75 stuff has a CPVC too low to legally be an artist grade paint. Hobby yellows also tend to not work as well as artist grade as yellow when its mixed pigment due to how it interacts with the green and red spectrum doesnt really read as yellow and tends to get into weird problems with things like PW18, PW26, and pyrogenic silica which can cause them to clump up due to most having smaller particle sizes as a lot are dye-like than the three things mentioned which will cause them to form bad agglomerates which is why a lot tend to be clumpy and not great to work with. Artist is a legally defined grading term and not some specific style of paint. In some countries its called professional or studio.

No I didn't, make sure they are well shaken to ensure the pigment and medium are integrated. Some of the Xpress colours are a bit thinner than contrast and that's on purpose. As for the brush, don't buy it. It was a test and they are ridiculously expensive and not as good as one would expect
