A little update from my original video. A bit of a ramble on paining using the citedal contrast paints, what i think theya re good for and what they are not so good at.
I agree with you. Contrast paint are great for quick and bulk painting, but you do have to highlight them a little and they are just too runny for detail. I use typically 50-60% of my historical figures in contrasts.
Thanks mate 👍 i now use Darkoath Flesh as my first tone onnearly all models instead of guilliman flesh. I like this range as it has lots of applications
Thanks very much, but if a last minute video, I just switched the camera on, didn't really plan it 😀 I agree, I just tend to ask myself does this need highlighting, if it's a rank and file model mixed in with 6 others on a base then sometimes I feel it doesn't 🤔
Very interesting insight into contrast paints and historical figures. It alway good to see and get opinions on these things. I think they are too pastel, but I like the way you use them and the results you are getting 👍😁
Great review and tutorial. I've used "contrast" paints for a few years now, though they're from Golden Paints. The High Flow Acrylic Paint line. Great for painting on light gray or white primed figurines. Very bright colors. An alternative medium that can be used is airbrush medium (for high flow or fluid-type acrylics) if you can't get Citadel or other brand mediums.
Interesting video. I quite like the idea of using them for horse painting but they seem to have a certain look to them that is not sold to me. One day I will get a few to try.
Interesting chat. Must admit I haven’t tried these yet and from the title of the video, I was expecting you to say they’re good for absolutely nothing. I might have a look though, I think they could be especially useful for horses.

These painting videos are very useful, and I have been painting miniatures for over 40 years! Thanks for taking the time to do these.
Thanks very much for taking the time to comment, this is an old video but I'm glad it's still useful 👍

Cheers, totally agree with you mate, they are just anoher tool to be used like any wash or effects paint
Interesting update thanks. Very helpful to see where contrast paints can be used. The flesh aspect is particularly useful.

Great video buddy. Very informative and helpful for folks wondering wether to give them a go or not.
Cheers mate 👍😀
A nice little session. Thanks for your thoughts on contrast. Seems a lot of people are saying its a good tool but still needs highlighting..

Thanks very much, i havent heard of them but i will have to check them out, thanks for the heads up :)
@@7thson726 You're welcome. I get my Golden Paints at Blick. They do have a sample pack if you want to try them without investing a lot of money.
Very nice video, I've not used contrast paints but they do look interesting, all the best, Garry
Cheers mate, it's worth giving them a go, you may find one that really cuts down on a part of painting you find tedious, i.e. me and horses 😁
great Video!Great to see your painting process!
Thanks very much buddy 😀👍 wasn't really planned so glad you enjoyed it
Interesting video. I quite like the idea of using them for horse painting but they seem to have a certain look to them that is not sold to me. One day I will get a few to try.
Cheers, yeah I do know what you mean. I thought I'd just share my thoughts 👍
Anything that makes painting horses less painful is a win to me 😀

Horses is the thing that I find them most useful for. I hate painting horses
