New Gamemaster: Character Paint Set From The Army Painter!
August 18, 2022 by brennon
The Army Painter crew has been putting together some new kits for folks to dive into, especially if they are into their roleplaying games. One of these is the new Gamemaster: Character Paint Set that is available to pre-order now ahead of a November release.
Gamemaster: Character Starter Paint Set // The Army Painter
This set has been designed as a good way for you and your group (or perhaps one dedicated painter!) to sit down and get painting some characters for your roleplaying games. Inside, you get nineteen different Warpaints plus some Brush-On Primer allowing you to get started.

As well as the paints, you also get your hands on a getting started guide for painting and there is also a little beginner's quest too which is fun! The paints in the set are then joined by the five snap-fit miniatures representing a number of classic D&D character classes and races.

You get a Dwarf Cleric, Human Rogue, Human Fighter, Tiefling Warlock and a Wood Elf Ranger. That should cover the bases when it comes to getting through a dungeon without issue!

This feels like a very nifty set for those who are interested in painting up both their character miniatures and their monsters for roleplaying games. D&D is massive at the moment and there are loads of people getting inspired to dive in and paint up their own heroes. So, it's good to have a simple starting point thanks to The Army Painter.
Are you tempted to snap this up or perhaps buy it as a gift for someone?

This is a nicer value proposition then their dungeon terrain set thingy. Yes, small paint pots. Yes, you can get miniatures cheaper. But 17 paints, 2 washes and a brush on primer, a brush and 5 models. It’s decent. Plus I guess stores will sell it a bit cheaper then MSRP.
I think this is a nice gift for a new GM/hobbyist to make first steps. Or even use as a base for teaching your offspring without the danger of ruining your good brushes 😉
A Brilliant starter box for people just starting out in games or people restocking their paints get a brush an figures in the deal.
12 oz bottles vs. the standard 18 oz.
Someone will have to review the painting guide against the Reaper “Learn to Paint” sets to see which is a better set for a new painter.
minis for rpg’s ?
That’s heresy 😉
I do like that the 5 characters aren’t the standard race/class combos.
