Acylicos Vallejo - 72299 - Acrylic 16 Colors for Fantasy Figures

I recently got back into scale miniatures. I build 1:35 scale tanks and have just taken the delve into Warhammer. Shifting over from tanks, I didn’t have many bright colours. This box has stocked me up nicely on some key colours.The paints are of a good quality and I’m a big fan of the dropper style bottle. I’ve airbrushed and hand painted with a number of them and find they mix well. If I was to be picky I would say one or two of the colours don’t have as good a coverage as the citadel range but for the price, excellent and two thin coats works great for most.The only thing I wasn’t to fond of was the gun metal metallic paint. The reflective particles were a little bit two large for adding a dry brush silver effect. Otherwise not a bad colour.Great gift, good for a budget stock up of paints.

This is a fantastic set, the paints beat the citadel options hands down. The pigments are very strong, and thin beautifully. The only paint that lets it down is the gold which is extremely thin, so much so that it takes three or more coats.

Worth the money

Here's the main points quickly:Great set for the price (I paid £29.95);Wide range of colours that give a good range depending on how you mix however;Yes you need to buy another black as it finishes glossy;Yes you need to buy more blues (impossible to mix with what you have since you need different blue pigments)Long story short, it's a good set and worth getting (assuming it's still under £30) as it'll be hard finding a similar set at the same price. I'm new to painting miniatures, and these have proven very helpful in learning all the ins and outs. So far the paints haven't limited my learning and I'm growing with them. Well worth it in my opinion.

Great set of paints

These paints are a recommended go-to brand for painting tabletop fantasy miniatures. Good coverage, even consistency and a good range of colours in this starter set. Extra colours from this brand can be purchased separately. Needs to be given a good shake to mix the pigments before each use. Stainless steel paint balls are recommended to use with these paints (sold separately).

Bought as a basic colour set for my 40k miniatures. Lovely prime colours set, as well as a good bright orange and two good greens.There are also the must have silver and gold.Great basic set.Even happier as I got it at a discount price because there was a small rip on the box, which doesn't affect the paint set at all.Superb value.

a good starter set with a nice selection of colours.can be easily thinned for use in an airbrush with just water but its better to use a flow improver to cut down on tip drying .I have a lot of vallejo products from primers to thinners , flow improvers, liquid mask etc and all are excellent. its a brand you can trust for good quality products
