It took awhile to learn how that kind of paint goes down. I would recommend the AK neon paints but also remind people that there is a bit of a learning curve, as there is with any new technique or tool. You can see on the roots of my plant what we meant when we said it was 'binary' under blacklight. It doesn't look quite that stark in person but it is still noticeable.
It looks wonderful. I'm glad you made that video !
I just bought this set with plans on making some 80s themed bases for my Bot War minis from Traders Galaxy. I don't think they would do to paint a whole bot, but I could pick out some weapons, faceplates, glowing lights, etc with them.
What games are you folks playing where your pieces have to glow in the dark??? hehehe
Hmmm blood bowl after dark... a night time blood bowl tournament where all the teams glow....that might work :)
Lets do it!
@@kustimork @Game chamber ok boys... lets book Holloween 2021 Blood Bowl after dark...all night tournament??
The go to neons are gsw and scale75 tho lol
scale 75 are meh
@@SvartElric9 Nah, scale 75 are like the opposite of army painters issue; Army painter is shit paints that are easy to use.
Scale 75 are great paints that are harder to use.
If you are finding your results are bad, it's a you issue with most scale75 ranges.
@@nameisbad you can see a host of painters posting display level miniatures also with Army Painter paints, which are also very easy to find almost everywhere. On the other hand Scale 75 are a pita to find and use (and not as cheap). So I would say it's not a "me" problem, if I have fun and enjoy my results with a cheaper brand. Maybe you're a snob who thinks Scale 75 makes you an "artist", but let's be honest, there's plenty of reviews showing how their fluorescent paints simply aren't as good as GSW or AK.
@@SvartElric9 no you only really see some painters use them when sponsored or working with them, the huge majority of painters in the profesional circle avoids them for the following reasons:
Piss poor pigments, glossy medium which is undesirable, gloss hides mistakes but has a crap finish, that's why bad painters tend to like somewhat AP.
Add on that to make AP look good you have to put in more effort than other competing brands and you have a strong reason to avoid.
Scale 75 isn't a pita to use, they are a pita to learn. And that's almost exclusively their scalecolor range. their artist HBA range is in fact the easy HBA to use due to their unique medium that makes it silky.
I use AK interactive personally, so shows how much you know and are just a triggered AP fan whose letting their emotions run wild and assuming a lot of me.
However I was a commission painter for busts and mini's, until I moved onto oil painting and then finally painting canvases with HBA's.
Finding scale 75 paints is easy wtf you on about lmao.
Also please don't cherry pick singular ranges like fluorescent, they've got banging colors in that one, but yeah AK is better, GSW are easier and as good. Good god you sound like I struck a nerve and are trying your hardest to reach.
@@SvartElric9 like legit, no one worth their salt would choose ap over anything else, gloss is a compromise, it looks worse but hides bad painters mistakes more than matte or satin.
Scale 75 require learning, once you have it down it's easy if not a little more time consuming but the results are something no other paints really match with a very distinct matte finish and incredibly fine pigments of good quality.
Like the only people who will push Army painter are paid by them, sponsored by them, etc.
And there aren't that many of them, even if you suffer confirmation bias.
Ak interactive are my go to as I said but the comment didn't go through like 20 minutes ago or so. Or at least were my go to, alongside kimera. I still use my scale 75 paints for busts when I want to nail skin.
But frankly, I'm an artist, you are absolutely right just you think it's that i'm a snob which is wild as i'm trying to save people money and get them wildly better products.
The real reason I'm an artist is I was a commision painter before in the hobby, now I'm a canvas painter, who paints in oils tho primiarly in heavy bodied acrylics.
If that's the argument you are going to push, that that makes me a snob, then it's not much of an argument at all. And frankly, I really don't care what you think on the subject, caring about the best quality to price to ease of use ratio (ak interactive is my rec because of it, 3rd gen specifically) doesn't make me a snob.
And it really doesn't matter what you think, there's a ton of OBJECTIVELY bad things about AP, and in blind tests it regurlarly places last.
Gloss is disgusting, their pigments are poor, their binding medium is sometimes temperamental. It's a great product to take money from those who don't know better, make them work harder, have a mediocre finish that can't compete with other brands and have those people defend it because they'd rather do that than admit they bought what is essentially a new hobby painter trap. Because that'd just make them look bad right?
I'd rather educate people on their options, from a PRO point of view, as someone who even goes so far as to use pigment powders to make my own paints, I've done my research, i've earnt my salt, that doesn't make me a snob, it makes you insecure for having called me so.
