brilliant video. The side by side comparisons are extremely helpful. I haven't fully embraced contrast paints yet so this gives me a better idea of which ones I might need.
This was really helpful. It makes the new contrast range make more sense to me. I see that it’s not just brighter colors but also better coverage. Thank you!
I'm impressed with the opaque contrasts, it might change the game for yellow and orange. Black Legion and Baal Red will be staples in all paint collections. Good video Pete, well done.
Baal Red, Magmadroth flame, and Bad Moon yellow look like interesting tools. They don´t provide the instant shading as other contrasts but have enough shading to let you imagine easily where you can apply further shadows and highlights, more than with a base paint. Probably an instant staple in any paint set for people who like to apply their own contrast.
Never tried a contrast paint before, but those icy blues looks interesting. I've been trying to make some sort of frozen earth bases, and that might help.
Great review. Thank you ! I just wish you would also make a photo of all of them (collage - one next to another or just 1 by 1) - It would serve as great help for a future when selecting the the colors for a project.
Of all the reviews I've watched from many of my normal subs, yours is the nest example of these new colours and gives me great hope for the range. Nice job. I realised that while I have been watching your videos a lot I hadn't subbed, so now I am!
Thank you for this review. I can definitely see a bunch of new colours to add to my collection. A lot of the new greens look amazing. Thanks for sharing!
Of the various 'got the early access' reviews, this is probably the most detailed I've seen in terms of "here's what this colour would work well for" and the comparison to the existing contrast range. Given the closeness of karandras and striking scorpion to warp lightning (also others, but really obvious in the greens), I suspect that part of the longer term plan will be to market groups of contrast paints as 'triads' (which Reaper has been doing for years and Army Painter started doing with their Air range)
Wish the Kroxigor came out sooner, it might have worked for my Alpha legion model, but I would need to see how it looks over a metal base. I really like the black too.
I have been using Akhelian green for ages and it looks great. Alternatively, if you have it, Tamiya clear blue over a metallic base gives a great look.
@@tombrand236 lol my poor alphas have gone through some rough times with their color scheme... it started with that shade technique that needed 7 to 8 layers of shade... I had quite literally just finished all my terminators when contrast came out and I saw I could get a similar effect with one layer of contrast. So long story short, my current army has a mishmash of models painted with regular paint, layered shade, contrast paints and color change paints all mixed together... mostly because they all look good, I can't decide what I like more and I figure the alpha legion is about confusion so if I am confused about the color scheme of my own army, my opponents must be dumbfounded. Lol
Hey! every model doesn’t need to be the same! Some could be older more seasoned veterans or Space Marines that fell later on, variance can look really good honestly, it’s how my Drukhari worked out lol
Fantastic review, especially the comparisons to the older contrast paints! It would be interesting to see how they look over wraithbone or grey seer...
Its fun to hear you say you dont like white primers. I used to only prime black, but when i tried white primer for Speed paints/Contrast paints. I painted on it normally with paint as i would with a black primer, just to try it out. and i LOVE white primer way more now that black. Sure its harder to cover everything since the white shrine through. But damn, colours POP on white compared to black.
Perfect video! You are a legend Pete! This is exactly what we need. I don't wanna buy all the new contrast paints but thanks to your video I have now spotted a few paints that would be absolutely perfect for some upcoming projects. Cheers!
Im really happy about the new purples. I remember getting a bottle of shyish and was taken back by how much burgundy there was to it. Leviathan is much more what I was hoping for.
This is a brilliant review Pete 👏. The side by side comparison to existing CPs is excellent. Thanks for your time and efforts matey. Very much appreciated sir 👌🖌️👍😊
Great review, very comprehensive. I appreciate the extra work required but it would be fantastic to see these new colours over Greyseer or Dawnstone base coat as those would give us a reference to something we're more familiar with. It would also give an indication as to how the saturation is affected by a non-white base coat
Thank you for showcasing all of the new paints. I was waiting to see how Magmadroth Flame looked, as I plan to use it on the cloth parts of the Votann encounter suits, with the new grey shade over white on the armour panels. Looks exactly how what I want.
really thorough guide. saved me a lot of cash, i was going to buy a bunch of these but now i know which ones i need and which to avoid. earned my sub. cherrs
I wasn’t going to buy any of these before I saw this video as i have most of the old ones but going to have to pick up a few of these now…thank you for the video review!
This is really excellent Pete! I've had people asking me for comparisons and this absolutely perfect. Thank you for doing all the tedious work so I don't have to 😄.
Thanks for the information on the new contrast paint!, definitely will pick up the new white scars spray can. Also the new contrast paint look edge look more finer as if they're edge highlight , definitely a new improvement
friendly hobby tip for my fellow FOMO sufferers: Much as I am a defender of Citadel exactly for their selection and variety of hues, quite a few of these new tones can be found in other manufacturer's ranges as inks. Vallejo Game Color Smokey Ink (72.068) for example will give you pretty much the exact same result as Garaghak's Sewer, and AK Interactive carries inks that are comparable to Black Legion and Ratling Grime, for half the price.
That Alderei Emerald would be spot on for Sons of Horus. Age of Darkness is a thing.... It's not a coincidence. For you other old farts, it's like the 40k we remember with such rosy colored glasses.
Great review. Very excited for the reds, greens and the blues. Especially the the blues. I'm stocking up on Frostheart for sure. Thanks for the reviews Pete 🤘🐺 Side note the purples also look solid. Most of the range has me excited!
I'm most excited about Sewer and the Yellows. Sewer looks great for making some grungy, rusted metal Necrons. And the yellows looks like some of the best coverage for that color that I've seen. They're just. So. Expensive.
I ended up moving Badmoons yellow and baal red. Being able to lay basecoats down so liquify with such coverage is a dream. I play evil sunz so i needs lots of reds and yellows
Definitely gonna be using Black Legion and Baal Red when I get around to painting up my Templars. I’m not very patient so being able to batch paint with these will be super nice.
Very helpful video. Thanks for it. I really like the new contrast paints. The fill all the gaps and the bright ones are so incredible. I really want start painting a contrast army :)
Great video, I have been really underwhelmed by this new range but you have given me some ideas on how to use some of the colours that don't behave like typical contrast paints.
Love this vid Pete! Will definitely be picking up some of these paints, I think the magenta one over a leadbelcher spray would create some really cool looking heresy 1k sons
Yeah GW paints are some of the worst in the hobbying world, as the new formulas come out, they are markedly worse than previously. I've been painting for over 20 years now and my local DIY store sells acrylic paints for less than 10% of the price of GW paints, and are 3x the size :|
@@PeteTheWargamer yeah that's what I was thinking, I tend to use contrast paints for leathers or to do quick effects mostly, so those ones seem perfect for that!
Just came from watching Ninjon's video, he pretty much put away the Pylar Glacier and said he'd likely never use it, come here and Pete is 'Pylar is probably my favourite out of the new range' :P Also some of these seem definitely much more like they originally advertised contrast paint, I kinda wish they labeled the new one as contrast 2.0 or something and maybe the Baal and those 1 coat that have no well contrast, just flat coat as 'contrast base' or something, also thanks for the detailed review, specially showing similar existing ones next to it. top notch video.
Haha, yeh I did see that too. I think if you look at Pylar Glacier as a contrast paint in the same category as Baal Red it's easy to dismiss it as being ineffective. But I think if you treat it as more of an effects paint or something that should be used in conjunction with other paints, then it can be incredibly useful.
A couple of those look less "contrasty" and more just like regular paints! Do they flow like contrast paints still? I use two coats of Black Templar for stuff like marines' joints, Legion stormtrooper bodygloves, etc. and it comes out looking a lot like the Black Legion demo here, if it flows similarly I think I'll be making the switch as soon as possible!
I dunno if I'm alone in this or not, but the Briar Queen Chill looks amazing to me. The translucence is useful for washes, and the frosted effect it gives when painted over white looks pretty great. You could add some subtle greens and deeper blues to that and make a pretty convincing thick ice effect.
"It's more of a blueish-grey than greyish blue..." It's that whole Ocean Grey/Military Grey arguement again, huh. 😏 Great review Pete, thanks for taking the time. You gonna be running down the new shades too?
I'm impressed that GW understood something extremely simple that might make this new range a big hit. Not every painter wants all these paints to be super crazy contrasted. For some paints, like that Orange and the Yellows, it's really almost enough to just give us a very well-covering version of this paint, because not everyone wants to sit there and paint six layers of bright yellow to get a .. well .. bright yellow armor or something. They took the concept of the CONTRAST aspect and thought one step further and really went into the "for the lazy painter" kind of market, which imho is a good idea, because it gets more people more interested in painting.
As someone who started doing very bright Iyanden, it looks like bad moon yellow is my new go-to basecoat, rather than approximately 58 layers of flash gitz
I don't like telling tales, but amma gonna. Squidmar can't see much use for the Pylar glacier but then boom! you knock out an amazing looking ice effect. Based off of Squidy's vid I was going to give it a miss but now I can't wait to try it.
I'm looking to use Mantis Warrior, Karandras or Striking Scorpions green for the trim and boltes on my Glooming Lords. I want a glowing radioactive feel, what would be the best way to achieve this? The models are based with leadbelcher and the armor is done with Black Templars black for a metallic effect (though in retrospect Stormhost Silver might have given a better result). Would I need to do a base layer of White/Wraithbone before using one of them (most likely Sriking Scropions)? Or do you think it would be bright enough to contrast the black while leaving the Leadbelcher for the metallic feel? Maybe I should do a base layer of Stormhost Silver first?

This is the perfect review! I LOVE how you showed the old contrast paints next to the new ones. Super duper helpful thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Agree. Perfectly comparable and you get a great impression of the colours.
This is how ALL reviews should be.
brilliant video. The side by side comparisons are extremely helpful. I haven't fully embraced contrast paints yet so this gives me a better idea of which ones I might need.
Agreed! Especially liked the comparisons.
@@PeteTheWargamer great video, will you be comparing how it looks over the grey seer or wraithbone primers?

Thank you very much for doing this! I've used it to add chapters points to the video.
But how do they *TASTE?!*
Doing the Emperor's work!

some of these colours are phenomenally good! Amazing work for the comparisons, not all heroes wear capes
Haha, thank you.
Baal Red, Magmadroth flame, and Bad Moon yellow look like interesting tools. They don´t provide the instant shading as other contrasts but have enough shading to let you imagine easily where you can apply further shadows and highlights, more than with a base paint. Probably an instant staple in any paint set for people who like to apply their own contrast.
wow those bases are the perfect thing to show off exactly how the paints look. Almost makes me say every GW store should have them for reference
A lot of FLGs do exactly this.
Never tried a contrast paint before, but those icy blues looks interesting. I've been trying to make some sort of frozen earth bases, and that might help.
Definitely, Pylar Glacier is easily my favourite. To the point where I want to actually want to start a frost themed army just to use it!
@Pete The Wargamer do you think it's a good contrast for painting Sylvaneth and Nighthaunts?
@@PeteTheWargamer Do it!
@@PeteTheWargamer where did you get the bases from? Were they purchased? Or printed?
I’m going to use the ice blue as the secondary color for my Eldar craftworld. And yellow spot color probably fist yellow.
Incredible. Would love to see more demos of you using the paints, like the last two minis you showed.
respectful request: updated raptors phobos 2021 kill team please and ty. want to see how you do the various new roles! love your stuff as always!

Great review. Thank you ! I just wish you would also make a photo of all of them (collage - one next to another or just 1 by 1) - It would serve as great help for a future when selecting the the colors for a project.
I feel that those new contrast paints are less "contrasty" than the old ones btw I'd love you to do the same with the new washes
they seem more like inks
Yeah, exactly... Many of them don't pool and darken in cracks and crevices, so I don't understand why they're called contrast paints...
@@xtraspecialj because they have the same medium and work similarly but less lightly i'm guessing
This is a great review. Straightforward and showing us the new paints in comparison to the older ones. Thanks.

This is a great review! Thank you. For this thorough look at the range. I would love a similar version for the new shades.
Fantastic review, especially the comparisons to the older contrast paints!
It would be interesting to see how they look over wraithbone or grey seer...

I'm so impressed with these, that black was delicious, who'd have thought it went straight over white.
I know, crazy right! It's definitely the most impressive effect out of the more opaque contrast paints.
@@PeteTheWargamer thanks for your work on this, great format and review!
Im really happy about the new purples. I remember getting a bottle of shyish and was taken back by how much burgundy there was to it. Leviathan is much more what I was hoping for.
i like the colors but for most of these new paints, they don't do their "contrast" as originally intended, pretty much no shadows and highlights
Exactly. The yellows in particular apply completely flat. Although I guess you can't complain too much about an easier to paint yellow.
Yeah they feel more like speed paints or inks than a contrast
This is a brilliant review Pete 👏. The side by side comparison to existing CPs is excellent. Thanks for your time and efforts matey. Very much appreciated sir 👌🖌️👍😊
Great review, very comprehensive. I appreciate the extra work required but it would be fantastic to see these new colours over Greyseer or Dawnstone base coat as those would give us a reference to something we're more familiar with. It would also give an indication as to how the saturation is affected by a non-white base coat
I really liked you comparing them side by side. Helped me alot

What an awesome review! All your effort is appreciated! Thank you, Pete!
really thorough guide. saved me a lot of cash, i was going to buy a bunch of these but now i know which ones i need and which to avoid. earned my sub. cherrs

Black legion and Celestium blue are going to be those kinds of paints i buy at least two or three bottles of, great video!
Thanks for the information on the new contrast paint!, definitely will pick up the new white scars spray can. Also the new contrast paint look edge look more finer as if they're edge highlight , definitely a new improvement
Yeh, the effect is much more subtle and lends itself nicely the pushing the detail further with another, lighter edge highlight.
@@PeteTheWargamer thanks for the info, going to use them for saving time on leather
Excellent video review! Really helped to show wich ones that fits with existing colors and schemes. Great job!
friendly hobby tip for my fellow FOMO sufferers: Much as I am a defender of Citadel exactly for their selection and variety of hues, quite a few of these new tones can be found in other manufacturer's ranges as inks. Vallejo Game Color Smokey Ink (72.068) for example will give you pretty much the exact same result as Garaghak's Sewer, and AK Interactive carries inks that are comparable to Black Legion and Ratling Grime, for half the price.
Extremely useful review! Excited to try that Kroxigar one on my Alpha Legion.
Thanks for the review, allowed me to decide for which paints I will go ! Cheers
Best review and show of these new paints I've seen. Good job
That Alderei Emerald would be spot on for Sons of Horus. Age of Darkness is a thing.... It's not a coincidence.
For you other old farts, it's like the 40k we remember with such rosy colored glasses.
The new white primer tickles me in all the good ways. Finally i can use contrast comfortably!
This may be one of your most useful videos PtW. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Between this and JH review, we now know all we need to before the range drops. Fantastic!
Great review. Very excited for the reds, greens and the blues. Especially the the blues. I'm stocking up on Frostheart for sure. Thanks for the reviews Pete 🤘🐺
Side note the purples also look solid. Most of the range has me excited!
Still THE best contrast comparison video out there.
Thank you. This was the perfect review. Only problem is now I want to go out and buy a bunch of these
Saving this to my favourite videos, this is incredibly useful. Thanks man.
I'm most excited about Sewer and the Yellows. Sewer looks great for making some grungy, rusted metal Necrons. And the yellows looks like some of the best coverage for that color that I've seen. They're just. So. Expensive.
High pigmentation paints of other brands, same effect, less price
I ended up moving Badmoons yellow and baal red. Being able to lay basecoats down so liquify with such coverage is a dream.
I play evil sunz so i needs lots of reds and yellows
Definitely gonna be using Black Legion and Baal Red when I get around to painting up my Templars. I’m not very patient so being able to batch paint with these will be super nice.
Very helpful video. Thanks for it. I really like the new contrast paints. The fill all the gaps and the bright ones are so incredible. I really want start painting a contrast army :)
Probably the best reviwe on the new contrast paints! Thanks!
Damn, those yellows are amazing for the most part! Love my Iyanden but these new ones will prove a huge help when creating yellow tones
This answered any questions I had - thank you, you beautiful man.
Great video, I have been really underwhelmed by this new range but you have given me some ideas on how to use some of the colours that don't behave like typical contrast paints.
Super useful approach! The choice of these bases was particularly good.
What an informative and relaxing review. Thank you.
Awesome video. Aeldari Emerald and Luxion Purple we're on my radar, but I think dread visage is as well now
this might be the most useful video ever created brother
Tried sigvald burgundy in store the other day and my gosh it’s gorgeous after a varnish
Holy crap. Magmadroth Flame is a contrast version of the orange I use on the armor of my Orks. This is great!
Perfect! I live this kind of work; so helpful... Thank you!
Excellent video - I'd really like to see what they look like over metallic undercoats and/or through an airbrush
Celestium blue, luxion purple, and baal red are working wonders for my Night Lords
Can't wait for the new black I find black templar goes a bit green on larger models and that new orange is glorious
Love this vid Pete! Will definitely be picking up some of these paints, I think the magenta one over a leadbelcher spray would create some really cool looking heresy 1k sons
Such a helpful Video. I keep coming back to it every time I think about a purchase. Thank you a lot. =)
I'm still finding that art store inks and mediums do a great job for so much cheaper.
Any recommendations?
Yeah GW paints are some of the worst in the hobbying world, as the new formulas come out, they are markedly worse than previously. I've been painting for over 20 years now and my local DIY store sells acrylic paints for less than 10% of the price of GW paints, and are 3x the size :|
THANKS... 🖌🎨🖼 this is wonderful review and I found it to be very helpful!
Man there are some really cool new colours in this range, I'll definitely have to pick some up!
Pylar Glacier and Striking Scorpion are probably my top picks. They're just useful if you want to create some effects in your regular paint schemes.
@@PeteTheWargamer yeah that's what I was thinking, I tend to use contrast paints for leathers or to do quick effects mostly, so those ones seem perfect for that!

7:01 not to mention also really good for replacing Tesseract glow on Necron weapons!
Maybe I did it wrong but Tesseract was awful for me, I hated how it came out.
Magmadroth Flame, Iron Jawz Yellow, Bad Moon Yellow, Black Legion this are my favorits
