Personally I think the metallic speedpaints still need some time at the drawing board. Absolutely love the idea and that army painter seems to be pushing the envelope with it, but it comes out too..... grainy(?)for my taste. One of the things I love about speedpaint is how smooth it comes out. The gold speedpaint I think is the closest to being done, but I feel like the others need some tweaking. Now, that being said, I love that they're doing it and already the ease of applying it and how it flows looks phenomenal. Just not quite tp finished product yet in my opinion. Keep bringing us these awesome videos! Love this whole endeavor with the pdt.

With mostly metal colors I previously only just painted black, then drybrush up to a very high silver and use speedpaints over them to get different metallics. But I'm really excited with the metal speedpaints since what I hate most with metallics is how stiff they are and getting an even, easy to spread coat would be fantastic.
@WatchItPaintIt Жыл бұрын
I never really minded metallics until Contrast and Speedpaint existed. Now they became the slowest most tedious part for me. These metallic Speedpaints make that bit fun again. It’s quick and consistent. As we can see on the final test, you can even see the gold and silver pretty well over black! These might just be the way I always paint quick metallics going forwards
@darthkek19538 ай бұрын
@@WatchItPaintIt most metallic paints use Mica but these use Aluminium. More expensive, but much better. So they aren't a kind of "watered down" metallic paint with a compromise finish for speed. On the contrary they are higher quality than most paint-type metallics.

The speedpaint gold looks really good over a bright silver undercoat, but I'd still be tempted to use a wash like Agrax Earthshade Gloss or maybe the new Agrax wash mixed with some Reikland Fleshshade, just to get a little extra contrast. Metal colors need a strong contrast to really give the impression that they are reflective.
@Nosferatuklown Жыл бұрын
To me it's a bit too subtle for the metallics - I can see it a change in the contrast, very very lightly...when I throw down the copper and I still have to throw down a dark wash (strong tone/nuln oil/oil wash) to get recess shading for it then it defeats the purpose for me. It just seems like a very thinned metallic, which I do personally like - currently I use Vallejo Metal Colours just because of how thinned they are out of the pot

Hmm to be completely honest, I am not a fan of these metallics. At least on video, the finish seems to be really matt with some metal flakes in it, which leads the metal look kinda old and dull.
