Check Out The Full Warpaints Range Coming In December From Army Painter
September 30, 2016 by brennon
The Army Painter have put together a number of different sets collecting together the Warpaints range. All of these sets will be available in December of this year.
Warpaints Starter Paint Set
Leading the way we have the Starter Paint Set which will get you going with all manner of different paints.
Inside you get...
- 10 Warpaints – including one FREE Quickshade Wash
- 1 Hobby Highlighting Brush
- 1 The Army Painter Painting Guide
Washes are the friend of the new painter as they help make your miniatures pop. I use them quite a lot over basic base coats and it can make a huge difference.
Warpaints Mega Paint Set
If you want to go to that extra level then you can also snap up the Mega Paint Set which will also be available in December.
Inside this set, you'll get...
- 50 Warpaints; 39 Acrylic Warpaints, 5 Metallic Warpaints, 4 Quickshade Washes and 2 Effects Warpaints,
- 1 Triangular handled Regiment Brush
- 1 The Army Painter Painting Guide
This certainly takes things to the next level and I imagine you'd end up never needing to buy another paint again.
Complete Warpaints Set
As a Limited Edition Set, you can also pick up this new bundle which gives you a whole bunch of paints but also effect paints including blood, mud, and rust alongside slime too.
Inside the set you get...
- 124 Warpaints; 96 Acrylic Warpaints, 8 Metallic Warpaints, 11 Quickshade Washes and 9 Effects Warpaints,
- 5 Wargamer Brushes
- 1 The Army Painter Painting Guide
To quote the guys from The Army Painter...
"The Warpaints are creamy and highly pigmented with astonishing blending capabilities, the washes cover perfect and the metallics are the absolutely best in the industry."
Do you reckon that you'll be picking these up when they become available?

If anyone cares about my opinion, I think this is an excellent range, especially for beginners ! Great selection of tones, excellent flowiness, very forgiving consistency for beginners, and extremely affordable. Their white is very useful because of that consistency, and i regularly use their Alien Purple… now they’ve got even more tones than before, including a bunch of broken tones in purple, grey and turquoise that I want to try ! 🙂
A lot of my friends use Army Painter now – it does seem like a pretty popular choice.
Everyone cares about your opinion Romain, cus when it comes to painting, you da Man!!!!!
I could really do with three of the huge sets. It would give me an opportunity to totally eliminate a lot of my older paints and focus on Army Painter and Vallejo ranges, since that’s what I use most often now. And I totally agree with you Romain on all points 🙂
i wonder how much they will cost
Click on the links and it will take you to the store page.
299£ for the big box. so less than £2.50 a pot.
I love Army Painter, they’re really great. My favorite are the colored spray primers though, they can save you a whole lot of time.
I just checked their online store for prices. The new starter will be $29.99 USD, the mega set $125 and the complete set $350! But that’s a lot of paint.. gonna ask for that for xmas, might get lucky 🙂
How are they to dilute for airbrush use? This is a brand I have not tried, except their washes…
Well with vallejo airbrush thinners, although the liqutex airbrush thinners works nicely too and is a lot cheaper based on volume of thinner in bottle
They’re flowy enough to be used pure (unlike, say, Vallejo’s old range or the Base range from GW), but it doesn’t hurt to use medium or thinner.
Pure they are fine. But I would try to always thin with something. Even a tiny amount.
Thanks for all the replys, great! 🙂
I have used loads of army painters products and none have disappointed me. I like the idea of paint sets however from experience this is never a good purchase. I still have a GW mega paint set that moist of the paints are unusable. I also have about 3 Vallejo sets that I have not used colours from and have duplicates of colours I don’t use often. I don’t think the unusable paints would happen here but I prefer buying when I need something rather than having one of everything unless it’s a small range. Beginners paint sets are good… Read more »
The GW paints don’t age well… they’re also the only ones on the market to do that, sadly. But I get what you say about unused colours.
a nice paint set value wise.
i’ve been waiting for this news! I’ve decided to flush most of my GW paints (will only keep the colors for my Tau force and a select few others) in favor of Army Painter, just wished it happened sooner than december!
I dont think i will get this set due i have 97% of model color range (180 of 210 i think) and maybe 30 game color paints, its been a long time on aircraft painting hobby and minis too, but is a great package to have a lot of paint tones and efects also! and always worth to look at some news like this.
I’ve had a couple of the AP paints. The yellow had absolutely no coverage whatsoever
Be interesting to see the expanded range I found the existing good bar diversity of range. Also looking at scale 75 or P3 for my paint replacements.
I would not object if BoW sent me any of those in the mail!
Me too! 😛
We should have been more creative and come up with the winning name for the blue paint a while back!
