Speedpaint Mega Set 2.0 Combo

I’m newer to painting, so I wanted to get a set of these and try them out. I had watched a few videos on YouTube. Anyways, I’m super happy with this purchase. I love the paint and the variety of colors. You have to get used to using the speed paint. It’s a little different than acrylic but I like it more. One of my paints was missing and I got a duplicate of another… but whatever I’m not sweating that one little one. But you could tell my box had been opened and rummage through all the paints were scattered all throughout the product. No paint was leaking or anything, but it made me wonder a little bit to the validity of the product at first. They seem to be legit though.

As advertised, one coat was enough to get shades and highlights with good coverage. I did some color tests on misprints with a white base and a yellower off white. The off white subdued the colors a bit, but the paints looked good over both bases. I am excited to begin painting in earnest with the speedpaints.Cleaning the palette was easy, and the paint came right off with a little water.The paints themselves are easy to use and I would recommend it to beginners who might not want to do several layers for the effect they want. It is also good for painting an army quickly. The paints are thin and don't require thinning, which removes another step from painting.All in all, I think this is a good product and serves its intended purpose.

It's speed paint, slap it on, go play with your friends.

I’ve heard about Citadel contrast paints but never really understood the concept. Saw a video on these army painter speedpaints and finally understood, so I decided to order them, as many say these are better and far cheaper than Citadel’s.Used them for the first time today to paint about three dozen miniatures and they are great! They really do speed things up. The colors are vibrant and useful.I am also amazed at the value. This pack is 50 (!!) containers of paint for only $130. That’s a crazy value.Only one issue: one container did get stuck and when I tried to force the paint out, it exploded all over. Be careful, shake them a lot, and don’t put too much pressure on them if the paint isn’t coming out. The seals on the plastic dropper tops aren’t the best.Apart from that I’m very happy with this set.

While seemingly expensive, very reasonable compared to the Games Workshop paints that my son uses for his Warhammer 40,000 K Space Marines and the Warhammer fantasy models. Great shades of matte and metallic paints but the plastic tray and brush not great. Buy better brushes but you cannot go wrong with this paint set.

Overall this a good set but I found it lacking in skin tones and greys. Peachy flesh is your only option for fair skin. There is no barbarian flesh or elven flesh. Battleship grey and Ashen stone are the only light grey options and they don’t adhere well. There is also no mid grey. You need to take something like burnt moss and add medium to get to lighter greys. There is also no white speedpaint in this set.So save yourself the trouble and get the larger set that includes all of the metallic speed paints, greys, whites, and skin tones so you don’t have to buy them separately. Speed paints are definitely worth it so go for bigger value.

I highly recommend any of these sets. I haven’t painted in over 30 years and this set is just right. The paint colors are great. This type of paint was actually recommended to me by a friend and once I got my hands on this and tried out a few colors I was very impressed. Paint isn’t thick either. It does run thin but there are so many possibilities with them. Great set! Highly recommended!

Love this paint set
