Thanks so much for the review! I greatly appreciate it!!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Your welcome my friend

[@Honz1q]

It is unfortunate that the shipping is the same price as the product which makes it double 😢

[@DarkAgesWorkshop]

Very nice showcase. We agree on most points! I saw you have the Flesh Eater Courts, I recommend trying out Carrion Crimson over those like on elbows/neck/armpits and around eyes/mouth. Goon's Grime foundation and then a glaze with Carrion, you'll see a damn magic happen.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Ooooooofff thanks so so much on the tips brother! Looking forward to trying this out! Thanks again man

[@pja8901]

They're on my wish list. Waiting for next pay day and will hopefully have enough for the box set! Can't wait. I'll be sure to use the affiliate link when I do :)

[@TheFeralPainter]

Awesome man! you will enjoy it! Make sure u check out the resources page to get best out of this product

[@wmalowany]

I ordered them as soon as Zack announced them, now I know it was a good choice 👍

[@TheFeralPainter]

Enjoy my brother! 👌🏻👌🏻

[@joegkushner]

Like others, I'm waiting for my pre-order to ship. Been pleased to see the various reviews of it so far. Thumbs up.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks man urll enjoy them

[@TheShaggyarab]

NICE LES GO cant wait for my set

[@TheFeralPainter]

Enjoy man

I'm starting to get into the more grimdark aesthetic of miniatures and i have to say goons grime and carrion crimson look very very good. The crimson dries with a fade from satin to almost gloss in the recess' and it makes sores and gore look very realistic, can't wait to try these in the future. The more tools for us hobbyists the better, can always combine usage of AK or MIG products with these.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks man means alot enjoy yours

[@kaffeebohne1332]

I always liked the easy use of AK and AMMO productes. Put them into airbrush spray them on and take it off with some mineral spirit and have a good result even as casual lower skilled painter like me. I was excited when i heared about VI because i get tired of the formula problems from AK. But now when i hear in the VI reviews "they act different", "need get used to them", "need to thinned" I get a bit worried they will work for me 😥.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Either way u will enjoy them

[@97thmaco35]

I am personally having a bit of trouble with application. I wondered if you could either reach out or do a segment on the prep and use of the VI. I LOVE the colors just having issues, which I believe to be on MY end

[@mieter]

love the video, thanks alot! those fingertips/nails look grimdark

[@TheFeralPainter]

They are!

[@mieter]

@@TheFeralPainter xD, much love from ZHR

[@shawnfairbanks9339]

I actually prefer the green ish streaking grime vs the brown one from Mig. It’s greener when you set them side by side sure, but not when it’s applied. They both have their uses though

[@TheFeralPainter]

Yea i understand what you mean. I suppose it literally comes down to preference. ☺️

[@ericb7680]

To be fair, Zack is a -part- of GDC. Certainly an integral part. don't know 100%, but I'm pretty certain Zack is not the driving impetus for this Product. Call me a "One-time-insider". "'Goon", The CEO of GDC/Zatcaskagoon Miniatures has been on the hunt for better solutions to washes since AKI screwed up Streaking Grime. He mastered Reductive wash technique many years ago. Peace, bro... great video... cheers!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thats right i got the the name mixed up in this video 🙈🙈 but your 100% correct

[@ericb7680]

Just wanted to ensure credit is given to the mastermind behind the product. The Grimdark community has grown incredibly because of Kendon"s dedication. He's kind of a big deal... y'know.. like you!@@TheFeralPainter

[@chomplax594]

Thanks for reviewing these! I would love to see a black templars and 40K world eaters tutorial in your grimdark method! I love your style!

Coming soon

[@tck154]

Do you find when you wipe away with white spirits it still looks chalky like with streaking grime? Or is just an enamel thing that happens 7:04

[@TheFeralPainter]

Just enemals in general. However these are great as u can remove in stages and even fully

@@TheFeralPainter thanks! Also thanks to your videos my models look like they never leave the battlefield. Amazing content thank you

[@VoiceInTheGrimDark]

Decay of the damned drying powdery tracks with Decay Deposits from AK. If that's the case it's more from rot on fabrics and some rust effects that a flesh wash.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks

[@Jason-gq8fo]

I want them but they’re quite expensive in the UK compared to the AK stuff atm

[@TheFeralPainter]

Ive not seen the uk price

[@crimsonsunbear5732]

@@TheFeralPainter 13 British Pounds or 16.48 USD as of 2/24/2024

[@Jason-gq8fo]

@@TheFeralPainter I think element games is the only place that will sell them atm

[@crimsonsunbear5732]

Further context, AK Streak and Grim is 4.50. So for the British or EU market it might be a hard sell ( it's even cheaper in the rest of Europe at less than 4 euros). Mind you that if this product instead of evolutionary it's revolutionary ( like the Dirty Down, which is 8 Pounds for 25 ml and people are more than happy to pay for, for the easy and use and cool effect) it could demand a higher premium, but I do think it's too similar as existing products on how it work and what it does to be called revolutionary. So even if it's a more premium product in the US, if it's successful enough there and the production can be increased as well as logistics improved in shipping, decreasing the price overall, I do think these could overtake AK Interactive Streak and Grime in other markets. ATM the price difference is just too high, if it was 150% or at least 10 BP or less I can see people picking it up. Great looking product regardless.

[@ryann865]

Hey Feral Painter, I just wanted to say that I am amazed by your content I have been ogling over your videos for the past week trying to gather every bit of technique and advice. Your a top tier painter and I guarantee your channel is going to blow up some day soon. You nail a real life aesthetic in your work, most grim dark is just cover it and oil and paint it black but your stuff feels real like your Leman Russ, Vashtor, and Lion paintjobs. It just feels hyper detailed and just like real stuff its worn but still maintained. Regardless, I love your work. P.S. I am currently working on Pox walkers so I'm working on my skin paintjobs. :)

[@TheFeralPainter]

Hay man! Firstly thanks so so much for the kind words! It really means alot! Im glad you find my content usful!! Hope u have fun painting yours 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@meanderingshade]

Really nice review bud, looking forward to saving some hobby funds and getting a set sometime. Carry on being awesome and take care.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Much appreciated!

[@izzydarkhart4144]

There are so many stand-out things that he is doing that other brands are not doing at all. No one else is doing black and especially fresh tones, the grime for that OG look. There is really not a comparison for those honestly.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Agreed they are great!

[@rickyl3136]

I'm interested but I need so see them in action. It's to early to say they are worth it but it's definitely an interesting product that looks amazing but damn those name tell you nothing about the colors.

Cool 👍

Thanks

[@rastamann2009]

This doesn’t look different to any other enamel washes, to be honest, other than their presentation

[@TheFeralPainter]

They do operate slightly different and have unique coulors. And special effects. Same could also be said about acrylic colours. They all operate the same too 👌🏻

[@rastamann2009]

@@TheFeralPainter indeed. Most acrylic paints also basically only differ in presentation. Still, I’d give a go at these if it were easy to get in Spain or Portugal

Enamels.
