Glad you like it! The app may not be 100% accurate as lighting and camera settings can distort things, but I think it is a good tool.

I think they are nice asides from the bubble thing. But other brands can have bubbles too. As of right now, my favorite paint is from Green Stuff World, believe it or not.

Usually if I don't thin them too much I don't get a lot of bubbles. But sometimes I do so I see your point.

Most times I don't either, maybe certain colors are more prone to it, I hear if you add flow improver it helps, but I have not tried it yet.

they have the advantage of being better prices versus their top competitor cough *GW* and also offering an entire range in one package. as far as innovation? I mean.. it's paint. all consumers want is a good performance to cost ratio. I think AP has that down with this line.

Yes, i noticed bubbles with the washes only if you let it pool in the recesses.

Thanks for the tip! Will have to try that.

didn't work for me

I see what you mean, I think they are really good otherwise

Great idea! I have painted plenty of those recently.

Yes, paint has come a long way!

This is how to paint to a higher standard, one can always simplify it.

Yes, they are good and who has even heard of them!

​@@TooMiniModelsYou have to try ak's color punch

Yes, I would say they are fairly similar. Like most ranges, the finish varies with different colors, but overall, they are on the more matte side. Perhaps not quite matte as the new Game Color, but way more may than say Citadel.

In my experience, the best way to work with it is not then to paint too much and try to make sure no paint pools in the recesses.

I could see that, I have done some glazing with them. I think they could work in some instances.

@@TooMiniModels definitely think some could work indeed but mylight blue struggles hard

I see what you mean. The bubbles are a doozy. I think they have a nice selection and really nice bottles, to bad about the bubbles...

@@TooMiniModels I liked the colors, but I just couldn’t get them to consistently apply smoothly without letting them stay too thick

​@@GoufinAround_ Yeah, can see that, these seem to be controversial paints.

@@TooMiniModels I’m worried that might be a problem with the new model color line too. I’m afraid to give them a try

​@@GoufinAround_ I see what you mean. I know the original model color range was a classic, but we won't know what they are like until they are tested.

You're welcome! I feel like everyone likes size comparisons, it feels good to see that a Cadian Shock Trooper is shorter than a Khorne Berserker!

I can see your point with the bubbles. I feel like with careful application, they can generally be minimized and I think they have the best bottles (not caps) in the market for a good price. I wish someone would combine ak paint and bottle cap, with the new vallejo bottles, that would be a really nice paint! I still need to try the fanatic paint! Do you like them? Have they lived up to the hype?

Love the fanatic paint. Coverage is amazing and “no bubbles”. I like you amazes me how there are hardly any reviews on Vallejo. Stalhy himself came out with a video apologizing for the bubble issue. Love that guys videos too

I wonder where it comes from... Never had any bubbling issues with new Game Color or Model Color or Xpress paints, like, at all. And since I am in Russia, I am wondering, maybe we've got a "newer" batch of paints delivered to our market? I specifically asked in our painting communities, literally nobody complained about bubbling. Weird.

I've had zero bumbling issues...

I bought 20 of these paints. Terrible they were. Never had any issues with bubble staying while drying with other paints. I was mortified when I came back to a model only to see tonnes of bubbles that hadn't popped while drying. Never used them again. Warpaints Fanatic range blow these outta the water. No issues whatsoever with them

Yes, and I am pretty sure the knights on horseback are just as tall, but harder to measure because they are on horses! I may have to make another video!

Yes, there are many things to like about this line. With a nice choice of colors that correlate well to the classic Citadel line and an amazing dropper bottle all at an affordable price.

I still need to try the fanatic. I guess a part of me is debating if I need to buy a big huge set or maybe I'll just wait for individuals or the starter set. I already have a lot of paint. Once I get some I will review.

​@TooMiniModels I think you are wise to wait. Paying hundreds of dollars for paint you don't really need seems a bit much.

​@@TooMiniModelsI bought the fanatic complete set. It's good paint but despite AP's marketing - it's still just acrylic paint. If you have a big collection you like using there's really no reason to buy the new AP stuff en masse.

I feel like one of the really neat things about Warhammer is the internal consistency, meaning that goblin model is physically smaller than an orc, an orc is a little shorter than a man, and so on. I think we all want to see the models reflect the lore and setting, after all, I think this hobby is primarily about immersion more so than just being a pure mechanical game like chess. So it makes sense why some would be bothered by a perceived new scale that doesn't reflect the lore or setting fully. I am generally in the same boat, but, am rolling with the new models, they are really nice.

I think they perform about the same as most other paints. I have done a bit of glazing with them to make some nice blends and I just added water, it seemed to work fine for me. Although I don't have extensive experience with glazing with this line. A medium is usually recommended for extensive glazing, Vallejo even has their own glaze medium in a new bottle.

Yes, they do look really nice don't they?

You are right, it was just a bit different than the others so it threw me off a bit! Thanks.

I feel like it depends on where you buy them, but I've found stores online that sell them for about $2.50 per bottle to $3.50. and it comes with 18 mm of paint in a really nice dropper bottle. The express paints seem to be a bit more expensive.

I have the yellow only and it seems okay, i thought it wasnt out but accidentally bought some

So what are your suggestions for best to go paint?

Right, but to be fair, whites are typically chalkier and thicker just by nature of their pigment. I find bold titanium white to be a bit better.

That's a good point.

Robes are Caliban Green, hood is kabelite green and stormvermin fur I think, and skin is nurgling flesh and blue horror I think. I ended up going with a different scheme but I should get back to painting tutorials, they can take some time to make though!

Absolutely! Glad to hear you are onto a strategy that works for you. I can totally see the logic in that. I sometimes like to keep juggling projects from different armies to keep things fresh, but that is where I am at right now.

That is a good idea! I have certainly experimented with almost every kind of acrylic miniature paint under the sun, from Citadel, Vallejo, Pro Acryl, Green Stuff World, AK, Two Thin Coats. Maybe I should branch out and try oils or enamels. My only experience with enamels was from when I was like 9 years old and used enamels with those really stiff brushes they come with that you see at hobby stores for model cars. Not a great experience. But maybe I should try, thanks for the comment!

​@@TooMiniModelsdefinitely try oils! Even if you start with an oil wash. I'm currently having a blast using oils.

Sure thing! I am happy if my video provided some value for you!

Yes, spot on!

I found it on Reddit. Just try googling for tonian army heraldry guide white dwarf

Sounds like an efficient way!

eBay, look up men at arms decal sheet

I don't have that book yet.

@@TooMiniModels Ah ok!

Sure thing

Thank You! All about painting a grid and cleaning up.

Sure thing! Just working on men at arms right now right now. ⚜️. I think I might be more comfortable painting on the emblems by hand after trying some of the decals.
