Duncan's Paints Are Goin Big. Two Thin Coats Review.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Casey and I painted different minis and had a different take on these paints! Objectively he's a better video maker and painter, so check out his video when you're done with this one :-) kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6GofKGrn795aKs

Don't underestimate yourself, you're highly skilled in both departments, Brent! Maybe it's your Swedish genes though, it's "jantelagen" coming through! (Approx. the notion you shouldn't brag about yourself)

[@DuncanRhodesDRPA]

Hi Brent. Thank you for taking the time to make this video, we are pleased that you liked the paints overall 😊 To answer some of your critiques, we will be adding more colours to the range such as greens, turquoise, brighter colours etc. We were only limited to 60 paints, so we went for the ones we use the most. As for the darker skin tones, we will most definitely be having this in the second wave (which we are currently finalizing now). Anyway, overall, we are glad you enjoyed using them 😊 Cheers, Dunc and Rog

That Dark Angel statue you two took a picture with @ 6:50 is probably the largest "conversion" I can take credit for. Back in about 2004, myself and the other GW employees from the former "Bunker" Store in Westminster CA, converted and repainted it as a Dark Angel. It started off as one of several fiber-glass Blood Angel statues that were issued to stores to draw in curious shoppers. Originally it had a blood drop flanked with wings in the center of its chest. We cut away the blood drop and replaced it with a sword to better match DA iconography. Others did most of the repainting, but I carved that sword with aquilla guard from a piece of balsa wood that we then covered with several coats of resin, and then re-glassed the rest of the drop shaped hole in it's chest. It's good to see it still kicking around, I hadn't seen it since it's reallocation when the LA Bunker was downsized.

Can you mix it with other paints . They should be called triad paints . Can you thin them with medium? Can you make a wash from them.

[@SamBrownBaudot]

How do the washes thin? I love the densely pigmented washes from Vallejo, and these sound like them. (Shoutout to Vallejo sepia!) And the change in surface tension you get from adding some water to most washes makes them even more likely to run off the peaks of a model.

[@afrotiffy]

Yes, this! They look a lot like Secret Weapon washes as well, which are excellent and last forever because they're so concentrated. I hate that GW has convinced the painting community that washes are only meant to be used straight out of the bottle and anything else isn't appropriate as a wash. I used to go through multiple bottles of nuln oil a year, and I paint heroic D&D minis, not vast armies! I finally made the switch and I'm not even 20% through my bottles of SW washes after 2 years. I don't think I'm even 5% through my Vallejo sepia, that stuff is witchcraft!

@@afrotiffy check out acylic inks and artist mediums, you can pick it all up at any art store and make a variety of washes that behave like the GW washes and contrast paints. A 2oz bottle of ink costs the same as a 18ml GW wash and you can dilute them to your heart's content.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

I was able to thin them quite a bit with water and get some decent results. Of course, thinning washes is harder to judge than thinning paints, but yes, these can be thinned with water.

@@jtrain9926 I am a huge, huge fan of inks! White ink for zenithal priming through the airbrush, and for edge highlights! None of the clumping or chalkiness of white latex paint. Red ink also produces better more vibrant results for me than any red paint I've tried to date.

Hi Brent! Love the passion you share on your content! Just one thing, I am totally noob on the hobby, so don't take this as I nothing is not. It's just some advice or observation from newbie point of view to you, painter master :) I saw that on your zenithal miniatures, there is maybe lack of smoothness and the white spots are very visible or make the texture like as rugosity. I had the same but after some research I found the next formula: 4/6 of white ink (Liquitex), 1/6 Glaze Medium (Vallejo) and 1/6 Gloss varnish (Vallejo). The varnish I use it to delay the dry time plus create more contrast for SpeedPaint paints. Really don't get me wrong, I even don't know if you are satisfied with that zenithal texture, but I feel you enjoy experimenting as me. Feel free to improve that formula or even ignore my comment. I just felt the need to help you a bit, as you already helped me a lot. Warm regards, Aitor

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Hey Aitor! Casey did the priming on these minis, no offense taken at all!! ;-) I've found white ink at 30 PSI with a very light trigger finger works pretty well. Interesting formula you have there, I may give it a try one of these days! When we're working with ~ opaque paints the zenithal highlight is really just to help the camera focus a bit better, but when we use more transparent paints the undercoat can be really important, so thanks for the idea!!! :-)

[@MaxiTurb0]

@@GoobertownHobbies thanks for taking it on the positive way, as intended. Waiting more videos with Speedpaint :P

[@Hurricanelive]

I'm glad they have numbers, hope they get more vibrant triads and more technicals. Duncan is a huge name and got me back into gaming and painting with his Sigmar tutorials when I was really down. Can't wait for my own set of these paints to come in and I hope they are really good so we can see a second wave of shades and technicals get released. I felt as some did that the first wave had far too many dark and muted colors that some triads could either be done away with or simply broken down into 2 shades and more brighter colors inserted to balance it out. Certainly just looking at the palette it just felt like it was missing 3-4 triads that could be there, but that's why we have mixing and blending. I'm sure I'm like some out there that have put off a TON of painting and have built up quite a back log pile waiting for these paints. 🤗🤗🤗🤗

I think Army Painter's recent skin tone line make them the industry standard now in terms of naming system (designed in consultation with gamers of colour). It is frustrating that hobby paint lines don't publish pigment information, but you can make educated guesses: no expensive pigments at all, no cobalts or cadmiums, and exclusively using very high chroma synthetic organic pigments such as quinacridones (that go further because they can be thinned down a lot) or earth pigments like iron oxides.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

[@littleobsessed7628]

Thanks for taking the time to review these. I was curious about them. I didn't hear you say, what is their finish like? Flat? Glossy?

[@bluedotdinosaur]

The washes being so thick may be due to Duncan’s personal painting method. He prefers to paint over washed areas with the base color to clean them up. Which results in strong, clean colors but can take a lot more time.

[@cheech381]

Hi Brent, I just saw your epoxy video I do need a chemistry lesson from you. I have some old green stuff that I found 5+yrs old.

@@ZobRombie13 Except for Kimera hobby brands (e.g. Citadel, Vallejo etc.) don't show what pigments they put in their paints. The idea being that keeping it a secret helps with other brands not copying their formulas (maybe some others reasons as well like people complaining when they switch pigments and the color changing slightly). Makes some sense until you see that all artist brands (Golden, Liquitex etc.) do state what pigments were used to create the paint. As a user I really like to know what is in my paints. That way I can predict what will happen if I mix them together. The less pigments used, the easier the paints is too mix. Citadel is famous for using several pigments in their paints, which can make the mixes more grey or brown than you would like to. There are other reasons why it could be beneficial for us but I will leave that for another time.

Great review, appreciate you going through all the details. On the skin tones, yeah, that's frustrating, especially considering Army Painter did that big set both to cover a huge range of tones and make it easier for people to do. Hoping that and the other missing colors you mentioned are coming soon, but considering Duncan and who he was, that the line does lots of good 40k stuff and space Marines makes sense. Curious about those washes and metallic paints, so hope you look into them more, but despite feeling like you pointed out a lot of problems, this review makes me more interested in the line than before by a lot. My FLGS is really new, so they don't have a lot of paints yet, but I would be happy to see these there. Also, as a fellow New Englander, I can now only hear Duncan as Dunkin'. But it's ok, because hobbyists run on Duncan. It's probably copyright infringement to use that tag line or something, but I propose that's our unofficial slogan for our unofficial name.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

I'm definitely more interested in these now that I've tried them.

[@fractuspumilio]

Nice to catch you guys at GAMA, that was cool.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

heck yeah!!! That was really fun, we'll have to go back again next year :-)

[@jessejdanieljd]

I hope there's a booth showing it off at adepticon

[@GoobertownHobbies]

we'll find out soon! :-)

[@kylenope6248]

At times these paints look like they are drying rather clumpy or chalky. Is that a result of the paint, or primer/minis that weren't quite smooth to begin?

[@bobyoung8730]

I only wish they could fulfill their kickstarter orders. I still haven't got mine yet, and can't wait!

[@thatgenericdixienormouspicguy]

Kickstarter always takes forever. It’s never been a quick process. I’ve backed quite a few and getting an order after a few months after it ended is fast considering some take up to a year before they’re fulfilled.

[@bobyoung8730]

@@thatgenericdixienormouspicguy Sure. but when they say its coming its coming, and then have a new excuse every few weeks, thats my thing... I get it otherwise, I kickstart all kinds of things. It was a topical, and relevant gripe.

[@thatgenericdixienormouspicguy]

@@bobyoung8730 Yeah, I understand and I’ve been there too. I am still waiting on a kickstarter I backed 6 months ago and they just started shipping their first wave so I get the frustration especially when theirs a new problem every other week.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

I think the time is approaching relatively soon... we shall see! :-)

[@bobyoung8730]

@@GoobertownHobbies Yeah I generally am quite patient, just need to be a bit more instead of whining for the first time on someones youtube :D Keep up the good work though!

Needs a lot more colour options to become a part of my hobby range

[@GoobertownHobbies]

They're in the works, I'm curious to see what new colors they'll have! :-)

[@Turai12]

I wonder when these will release in Sweden

[@tssteelx]

Where is it made? Having an issue getting paints from spain right now.

[@BarokaiRein]

Backed this up in Kickstarter but didn't go crazy with it. Just got something like 15 colours. Only one of which was metallic because let's face it, they're probably not gonna compete with Vallejo metal colour range because almost nothing does. However I am interested to see how the range fares when compared to proacryl because I kinda wanna break out of my current mold of using just ProAcryl and Kimera Kolors but haven't found anything that's about as good without being just stupid expensive like some heavy body acrylics.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Cool! I think you're going to like these paints. In my mind these are kind of like a thicker version of pro acryl. They have a similar flow and coverage once they're thinned. Have fun! :-)

[@cbradquillen]

Little does Brent know, the Asmodee reps charged a price for that roll of paper towels... HIS IMMORTAL SOUL!! BWAHAHAHA!

[@greenstreet_gaming5409]

Something to help with us colourblind people would be great. A simple name change. Or even a sticker or app or website little drop down. But it really helps to see something

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Great point! Casey had the idea of putting the shot of sorcerors cloak in black and white, and there are no context clues to know that it's a light shade of purple.

[@modelmanjohn]

All they need is a conversion chart for GW, Vallejo, and army painter.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

oooooof hehehehe. And THIS is why paints should be labeled with their pigments!

[@SkeleTonHammer]

As someone who paints resin 3D printed figures but does not really board game, I agree that it's always a little bit annoying when paints are named after fantasy elements. When paint makers do this, it makes it feel a bit like they're pigeonholing their products into only being usable specifically for gaming minis, when in actuality you can use these kinds of paints for a variety of things like action figures, static figures, resin statues, etc. (the kind of work I do). I think more mini paint makers should take the "risk" of opening up the naming of their paint lines to be more general purpose and inviting. Pro Acryl is a good example, most (if not all) of their colors are named in an appropriate way that you can identify it.

[@GoobertownHobbies]

Oh absolutely, I like the names on pro acryl paints - more companies should do that ! :-)
