2022 a year for resolutions... right?
Speedpaints - an experiment (cont. again)
I then tried a few more freehands on the back.
In the last Freehand I had painted Blood Red over the Fiery Giant Orange and that is a very aggressive red.
Conclusion: The Speedpaints from Armypainter do what they are supposed to do and as they are advertised. And that for a quite reasonable price. 34€ for 10 colours and a good brush are a worthwhile investment. Will I paint everything with them now? No, there are still too few colours for that and I don’t want to paint my armies differently “in the middle”. However, future projects and especially board game miniatures will probably be painted with it. A clear buy recommendation if you keep in mind the limitations and protect the minis with a layer of varnish from time to time.
As a reminder, here is the video of Army Painter itself:
[1] A small drop of bitterness: The 28-page painting guide stated on the package only has 24 pages. Has someone miscounted or should there be a new version of the guide that also contains the Speedpaints? They are missing.
I’ve seen some videos where they didn’t get the painting guide at all
A fellow German youtuber also didn’t get it. So either they noticed it’s the wrong guide or something else went wrong.
the final result does look good for quick results @sundancer
Thanks it’s really nice to see a product do what it says on the tin: paint things quickly.
