About this deal

The differences are only nuances, however, two paints stood out. Old Gun Metal had very fine metallic pigments and a warm hue, while the new one is more of a neutral steel colour. Soft Tone Ink has become a noticeable darker brown wash.

Filthy Cape: A light warm grey, doesn’t have the hint of green like on the colour swatch. My recommended highlight colour: Stone Golem. Also useful for highlighting GW Stormvermin Fur. Tanned Flesh: A tanned reddish skin tone that is excellent for shading Warpaints Barbarian Flesh. It’s a very close match for GW Ratskin Flesh. My recommended highlight colour: Barbarian Flesh or Kobold Skin. Crusted Sore: A deep crimson red, similar to Khorne Red but slightly darker. The consistency of my bottle was a bit thin. My recommended highlight colour: Vampire Red. The Army Painter’s Warpaints range started in 2012 with a compact set of 36 paints to complement The Army Painter’s Color Primers. Since then, the Warpaints range received several extensions and is now a fully-fledged paint range consisting of 124 paints. There are 96 regular acrylic paints, 9 effect/technical paints, 8 metallic paints, and 11 washes. Oak Brown: A dark brown, not too vibrant, not too muted, not too reddish. It’s very close to GW Dryad Bark. My recommended highlight colour: Werewolf Fur, Leather Brown or Dirt Splatter.Witch Brew: A yellowish, vibrant lime green with pretty good opacity. Compared to GW Moot Green, it’s much more yellowish. My recommended highlight colour: Poisonous Cloud.

Werewolf Fur: A pale medium brown. It’s similar to GW Gorthor Brown, but a nuance darker. Opacity is above average. My recommended highlight colour: Monster Brown. Greenskin: Another medium green, slightly darker than Goblin Green. It’s more vibrant than GW Waaagh Flesh. There is also a matching.ColorPrimer. My recommended highlight colour: Goblin Green. However, the Mega Set 2.0 will prove valuable to those who can afford it and want to either experiment with their painting experience or just want to get some models bished, bashed and boshed. It’s a shame my rating will have to be marred by the exploding dropper bottles, but had it not been for that, these would have been very easy to recommend.Leather Brown: A medium ochre brown. It’s similar to GW Steel Legion Drab, but a bit warmer and slightly more reddish. Covers very well. My recommended highlight colour: Monster Brown. Warpaints cater to a lot of different needs. For historic and military wargamers, there are a lot of tinted greys and drab and olive greens to experiment with, while there are loads of bright paints for fantasy and sci-fi collectors as well. It’s a quite large range with very few gaps, the only colours I’m personally missing personally would be a dark turquoise, a dark blue-grey and a dark blueish green. Maybe something to consider for future expansions of the range, The Army Painter? Combined with an innovative resin medium solution that flows perfectly over your miniatures creates an unparalleled painting solution to help you get more time for gaming. Poisonous Cloud: A bright and vibrant lime green. Works great for highlighting GW Moot Green, or for Jungle Green and Witch Brew. Like a lot of bright greens, the coverage is weak. Oozing Purple: A light, slightly pale violet. Compared to GW Genestealer purple, it’s a bit lighter, so it would make for a great highlight. Myrecommended highlight colour: Toxic Boils.

Lava Orange: A deep vibrant orange, similar to GW Troll Slayer Orange. My recommended highlight colour: Mythical Orange. Ash Grey: A light neutral grey, perfect for highlighting Dungeon Grey, Uniform Grey or GW Dawnstone. Almost an exact match for GW Administratum Grey. My recommended highlight colour: Spaceship Exterior.Stone Golem: A very light warm grey, lighter than on the colour swatch. Compared to GW Pallid Wych Flesh it’s slightly less reddish. Would be useful to mix with Castle Grey, Field Grey, Dark Stone or GW Stormvermin Fur for highlighting. The consistency of my bottle was a bit thin. My recommended highlight colour: Spaceship Exterior. Monster Brown: A light pale brown. It’s similar to GW Baneblade Brown, but a nuance warmer/more reddish. My recommended highlight colour: Banshee Brown. Brainmatter Beige: A very nice off-white that is useful to brighten up colours when mixed. It’s like a mix of GW Screaming Skull and white. You can also use it to highlight Skeleton Bone or GW Screaming Skull. My recommended highlight colour: Matt White. Phoenix Flames: A warm medium yellow. It’s very similar to GW Yriel Yellow, maybe a nuance less orange. My recommended highlight colour: Daemonic Yellow.
