In today's video, I test out EVERY single Army Painter Speedpaint, Citadel Contrast Paint, and build myself a Rainbow Lizardmen Army at the same time, with each speedpaint colour being a different model.

If you’re getting a glossy effect it’s likely because the medium hasn’t been properly shaken up. Recommend giving it another try and you should also see that the Hive Dweller Purple will also cover a bit smoother.
Just how much shaking do you need to do? If I shake vigorously for 30 full seconds, is it enough?
Will shake mine with a vortex at the weekend and see where that goes.
@@Ragnar42 i shook one once for 3 solid minutes and it still wasnt enough. I love army painter but you need to own a vortex mixer if you're going to be using them
@@christopherpeery7436 This is the way. When I got my speedpaints, they came with agitators already, which is nice. But ~$20 USD for a vortex mixer, and you're still coming out way ahead on price vs. GW. Plus, dropper bottles love you and want you to be happy, while paint pots hate you and want you to suffer.
@@wire_hall_medic8470 No lie, bought my vortex mixer 2 weeks ago as an unnecessary luxury purchase that I thought I'd just do because why not.
Holy hell, love this damn thing.
There’s something satisfying about seeing all those different coloured skinks in the colour spectrum order. Really nice vid Dana!
You are definitely one of my best painters on utube as you do a load of experiments with paints and I have learned a lot about layering, glazing and zenithal from your painting lessons.
Outstanding effort!!
Shyish Purple is actually one of my favourite paints in my collection. Not for it's advertised use, but as shadow color or shading color for silvers. It's also a great contrast to Vallejo Ice Yellow, which is basically my personal "Pale Sand".
valuable information
The Yoshi army came in quite well, it looks like.
Wet-blending with Speedpaints sounds really interesting. I'd love to see more of that in the future, as the technique is refined further.
The amount of effort that went into this purely to help the painting community is amazing. A comparison of TWO COMPLETE ranges PLUS a website with images.
Great video
As someone (noob) who just wants to paint and get into the game (SW Legion) and is not looking to win any painting contests, AP speedpaints fit the bill...and wallet. Waiting on my megaset. Thanks for this vid.
@@NightfallTH Why be an asshat to someone new to the hobby? Just cause you don't like them has no bearing on their experience with the paint.
@@NightfallTH Yeah, my set just arrived a few days ago. I quickly realized that it's just too many and i should've gone with the starter set and spent the difference on some other supplies.
I’m a beginner painter and am loving the army painter speed paint starter set. I’ve ordered all of the other colours. I am painting board game minis that have many different colours. Using a zenithal prime and just ‘painting within the lines’ approach is working very well for me. When I make mistakes the speed paint comes right off very easily with a wet brush. Colour blend and mix really well if I want a different hue. I’ve had to use a few velejo model paints for some colours speed paint does not have and I find working with thick acrylics very difficult and hard to fix mistakes. So over all I’m loving the speed paint range 😃. Oh and I really enjoy your videos, you’ve tought me a lot!
the drying time is not a huge issue for me honestly I tend to work on a couple different models at once, so while I wait on one to dry I just work on another, an you can apply normal paint delicately over top of the speedpaints without too much issue. any gripes Ive got about speedpaints though vanishes the moment you remember they are literally half the price, and when you have other things you have to spend money on like gas and groceries that is a huge consideration especially considering that on coverage, contrast, and finish the AP paints win out in performance at least half the time.
@@INCIESSE I wouldn’t be in the hobby at all if it weren’t for Speedpaint. 😂
@@INCIESSE I've heard speedpaints reactivate when they get wet. Would this make painting over them with acrylics or washes difficult or impossible? What about spraying matt or glossy varnish? Thanks!
@@williamarthur6644 mixing normal paint with the speedpaint medium seems to mitigate the reactivation at least from what ive tried and ive also just spray varnished the minis i base coat with the apsp before moving on to highlighting blending etc.
4m 36s, hair volume instensifies :D
this is what i get for taking a lunch break in the middle of filming
@@DanaHowl Time to move the Van De Graaff generator out of the dining room maybe. And while I've been noticed by Senpai, I'd like to say thank you for your wonderful videos, they've contibuted a great deal to me developing my mini painting chops. I look forward to your guidance on using speedpaints for blending :)
Seeing you knock over that Citadel paint pot was too relatable, lol
Definitely a paint bottle holder thingy is recommended... the taller Citadel bottles like shades are nightmarish for knocks. Giving them a bigger footprint on your desk really helps...
@@darkowl9 I keep meaning to get one, but keep putting it off for some reason.
I'd really like to see the speed paints on your underpainted minis
The reference page you made is amazing, thank you so much for taking the time to put that together! I'll definitely be using that on a regular basis!
You know, this actually seems like a cool idea for an army, slightly tempted to do this with all the new cool contrast paints and have a skink in every colour
That Sponsorspot is just too perfect for this video
I so inspired ordering army painter speed paints and 100 skinks let’s go !
As a 40k player Seriously considering getting into fantasy properly now just cuz I can have a rainbow lizard men army in a weekend flat
I dont think AP have ever said they were like contrast paints. There marketed as one coat and your done
This is my favorite video on TH-cam
thank you!
Thank you for the video! I think I am still excited about these paints just to tear through my pile of unpainted board game minis. It was very nice to see all of the colors from both lines next to each other. Eager to see your speedpaint video with the more wet blending style work.
Thanks for taking the time for this. Was useful in helping me decide where to spend my money.
Wow! Great breakdown. Thank you for doing this.
As someone just getting into painting I had hoped the Speed Paints would be a more budget friendly alternative to the contrast paints, but seem like they could be more specialized than what we want right now.
Thanks for doing this Dana! Really appreciate the effort that went into tackling this, but its super informative for us.
Fantastic video. Newer painter here and I have been dabbling around and this was very helpful.
I quite like the volupus pink, it is such rich colour that keeps its richness when dry. I agree that it dries patchily on a larger surface area, but on small bits like tongues, it is super fast and easy to apply. Much more niche than the marketing suggests, but my bottle will last a while and has its place.
I've gotta thumb up the video just for the sheer amount of work Dana put into this testing! This and the website will be a great reference for really knowing how these colors will look.
Nice video. Thanks for taking the time to put it together.
Oh my god you just went ALL OUT! I love it, thank you for this!
Already bought my mega AP Speedpaint range but am glad to hear about this new information and will keep all this in mind.
I do like Army Painter I have to say.
This is the first time I've ever heard anything complementary about the Ultramarine Blue Contrast paint. Thank you for doing this!
I started to watch this video and seriously could not tell half the colors apart. When you got to the blues I was like "That's not blue it's green". Then I realized that I had f.lux running and it was changing all of the colors. I had to disable that and watch the whole video over.
Great job! Very informative once I got the colors correct.
🤣
"Pale sand"
"Bingo!"
Really appreciate all the time and effort it took to do this video. And thank you for putting up your web gallery for easy reference!
Okay, nice vid. Will definitely use as reference into the future as I build out speed paint variety.
great video! one of the best resources - looking forward to the one for Seedpaints 2.0 and Vallejo Xpress Color
Both are coming soon!!!
a rainbow skink army like this looks so dang cool!
I'm french, I love your work. It's amazin job. Very thank you ♥
Can’t wait for you to get the new GW contrast paints and review then like you did here!
The smash bro bit had me rewinding and laughing for about 5 minutes. Its - chef's kiss-
Thanks for doing this. It's been such a great help.
So GW is releasing 25 new contrasts and also reformulating the shades. Would you be willing to test them all so we can see what they're like??
Great video! I'd been wondering about getting the speed paints to fill out gaps in my paint collection, so a really in-depth, unbiased analysis is super useful!
First layer magos purple then volpus pink makes great cloaks and cloth pieces :)
When the Yoshi army popped on the screen for the first time, I almost spit my coffee on my monitor. Good review, thank you.
Love comparison video's like these! I understand that they take more work, but I could see people re-watching them for a long time to come. For example when they want to invest in the standouts of both ranges.
That ultra smooth transition into the ad spot
Thanks Dana
thanks for that link to see how they look many thanks got speed paints 1.0 and knowing a end colour helps alot
wow..super thorough...great for a beginner like me. thanks for doing that.
Thank you for the in depth colour comparison!

I was thinking the same thing when they first released their contrast paints. I'm glad AP did, but it is kinda sad that the bar is that low.
Nice video--much appreciated. I will use this as a gauge to buying my lines.
This video was really great ! Can't wait for that next video about blending the speed paints !
I usually tend to add a drop of contrast medium to the contrast paint on my pallet. This smooths it out considerably and helps avoid a lot of that coffee staining effect.
Dana Howl is the mvp. I really appreciate videos like these to help me make decisions on a new paint range. I also just enjoy the videos in general, thank you for all the help and content! 🙏🏻
Great comparison and really appreciate how much time and effort this must’ve taken! My takeaway it’s like standard acrylics, you have to mix and match to find the ones that work for you 😊
That visual list you made on your website... Thank you!!! a great resource.
PALE SAND! YOU SAID THE THING!
I was not prepared for the tide of Yoshis...
Good video, very thorough comparison.
Thank you for this. Very good to see the differences in colour and how they turn out. Great help for beginning painters such as myself
This Is a great video, I've just started getting back into painting Warhammer and I think the Contrast paints will work great for my Imperial guard army so I can build more complex highlights on top of the all in one base/shade coat
But for my Tyranid army the speed paints make for a great slap chop to cover all those organic surfaces in one stroke
What an incredible review. You painted so many Warcry warbands worth of skinkies! Definitely looking forward to seeing your watercolor-style video.
Holy Bananas. Doing the lords work here Dana.
Thank you for doing all the hard work for us 😭 I absolutely loved and needed this video.
I can't stop looking for the paint that looks like the colour of your eyes. For me, most impresive part of the video.
Thanks for the great Video Dana.
Gryph-Charger Grey is amazing for painting terrain such as stones, brick buildings and so on. Great video btw
Hi Dana. Your videos inspired my to start painting my board game minis with Speedpaint. I’ve started this channel to share my learning experience. Thanks heaps 😃
Skinks are basically just yoshis....how did I never think of that.
Finally!! Nice video, and better work trying to show us the speed paints. This should be a hard work mounting, priming, painting and then editing the video. Thanks Dana!!!!
Transparent purple from pro acryl is the only “contrast” type purple I use now. It gives such a vibrant result
Awesome video! Thanks for the compare and CONSTRAST of the two. Speed paints seem interesting and I'm thinking about picking up a few colors just to try them out.
Thanks for taking such a methodical approach. And i freakin' love your rainbow skink horde!
Thanks for this comparison. It’s like a complete reference and I see the amount of work it took to complete this. Kudos!
yeahhh! Thank you so much for the grueling effort for this video!
Thank you so much for all this work, this is perfect! I was keeping updated with your instagram on this project and it really is amaizing the work you had . Altough you have one of the coolest skink army ever and as a lizardfolk enjoyer....Nice.
Great video. I’m pretty new to the hobby, and I started out with contrast paints. I think I’m gonna try the AP speed paints as well. Thank you for the video
Definitely best comparison video, although I still go with the fact neither brands are really a beginners products but support mediums . I would love to see you demonstrate the great combinations and support contrast offer. Thanks for the great video and excellent comparisons, best yet!
Awesome video, thanks.
Thank you for the video review.
Would also be cool to have a video pictures on the different colors one can get by mixing two colors together, like one part Fire Giant Orange and one part Pallid Bone.
Thank you. Thank you so much. I love to watch videos like this. My brain loves when objects and colors. I would love to see more videos like this with different brands of paint!
Definitely looking forward to that AP review you mentioned!
Thanks so much for this vid..saved me a ton of time. You rock!! Gained a sub!! The time it took to set up the wash Spill did not go unnoticed! ;)
Super helpful video, and awesome army of lizards. Yoshi pun killed me.
slow drying watercolour for minis paints actually sounds pretty dope ngl
This is the in depth, high effort content I love
Dana ain't no slacker.
I was trying to find an easy way to paint xenomorphs from thr AvP game, those skinks with white prime and black contrast looks perfect, thanks!
This is what im searching since last week. Thanks
I guess im going more contrast but little by little
Very useful video - thanks!
Working with the so-called "zealot yellow" now, and I am not seeing any yellow at all in it-pure orange.
Vallejo model color has a subsction of "Transparent colors" that are much alike contrast paints. I would love to see them side by side from the the others.
Pro-Acryl also has several transparent paints in their line - haven’t seen those in action yet tho
This is the best review I’ve seen on these. Great work!
The contrast paints gets weird coffee stains and sometimes dry so fast that blending or larger models in general becomes more difficult for even coats. Compare to paying half price and more even on larger surfaces, it sounds like an easy decision. The only bad thing with army painter speed paints is literally that you have to mix your own torqoise from your favorite blues&greens. I prefer not having 87654 paints that goes bad anyway. Dont you? :)
I love the AP speed paints, even though I've never bought them, but from this video it seems like some colors from GW and AP have some streangths and weaknesses, I plan on buying the AP speed paints aswell as select GW contrast colors
you are very helpful to everyone, especially beginners. thank you so much
Thanks 🙏 super work Dana !!! 🇩🇰
I've been afraid that there wouldn't be Pale Sand looking at the title but now I'm reassured.
Thanks for the breakdown. Gotta say, I've never gotten my apothecary white to look like the white you have. It's always a blue-gray.
