    Magenta is different because it's a combination of high energy light (reds) and low energy lights (blue) but almost devoid of any medium wave lengths colors (green). It's rarer in nature (hence why it's not in a rainbow) but our brains can perceive it. It makes it "feel" distinctive from pink (which is desaturated red). I believe this man made element to Magenta makes it feel appropriate in SciFi settings on an almost unconscious level.

    As an art/color theory nerd this is correct... magenta is a v high saturation mid-hue purple (meaning it comes from blue and red)... pink (of any variety) is also often very saturated but is a higher hue high lightness red. It all sounds confusing but understanding hue, value, and saturation will solve your paint matching problems much better than "find the complimentary on the color wheel" technique

    I'm not surprised to see Pro Acryl so much on this list. Monument Hobbies really nailed down the perfect consistency for easy brush/airbrush work with minimal thinning needed, and the price point per paint is very good. Speedpaint 2.0 has been a godsend for me. I agree that 1.0 was not good at all, but the 2.0 line does contrast much better, and more importantly to me feels a lot easier to work with. I'm fighting it for even coverage a lot less than I do with contrast paints or 1.0. I have an ork army that is mostly contrast, and after getting the 2.0 set and finding good equivalents I've switched over to speedpaints for the rest of my models. For ork skin, I'm also not a fan of the pale/pastel green. I'm really happy with Striking Scorpion, then 1:1 Frostheart/Medium (Shamrock Green and Magic Blue for SP). I gets you a much more saturated/poppy skin color without giving them Incredible Hulk skin.

First 1000 pts space marine army was painted with those. Then I got Browns, Purples and Technical paints, coz with existing colors it was hard to get those colors. So another 2000 points of Space Marines were painted.

    I've been using a lot of the paints from Reaper Miniatures lately, since I can order paint from them when I order figures and with their triad system, you've got your low, mid and highlight so you don't have to look through everything to find the right colors, plus they're easy to shoot through an airbrush and go on nice and clean with a brush too. That plus Anne Foerster's painting tips and tricks on their youtube channel have helped me improve even more than I'd thought I could, even after having been doing this for over 20 years. I'm just glad we've got so many different paints now, used to be the ONLY options you had were Testor's Enamel paints. Believe me, you don't want to try painting an entire army or a handful of D&D minis with just enamel. It does not end well.

    The biggest thing for me, regarding the total price of all the paints, that a new person should keep in mind is that you don't need to buy every single paint at once. Buy it as you need it. I made almost monthly trips to a local store to get new colours and something cheap to paint with it (they have pre-primed D&D figures that worked really well for this) over the course of a year before I had everything I felt I needed.

    Vallejo grey primer is great on an airbrush and the speed paints are amazing on an airbrush, just be careful as you lose the shading effect. But if you can overlap the colors a bit to show it’s not just one color on one part they are better then using a regular brush and paints. Moral of the story: but an airbrush at least for priming. I like pro acryl black or Vallejo grey. White primer is trash for everyone

    As someone who has an LGS with the Two Thin Coats line I've picked up a bunch. They're all really good so far and I would definitely recommend swapping them for GW equivalents but I don't have many in Vallejo or Pro Acryl to compare to because I mostly bought GW before now (I know, I know). The dark purple is fantastic for my tyranids, and the greens and blacks are very good. I like their lighter reds a lot too. The Rakarth Flesh equivalent is fine, but since I'm painting a lot of flesh right now I'm blowing through it. Their metallics are also pretty good as well, I've used a few and they all cover well and look good

    I bought Vallejo Model Scarlet Red when looking for a red color, and I found that mixing it with the tiniest bit of white actually made a really cool shade of orange. I can't use it for red anymore though, it just looks like dark orange to me.

    I have the full Pro Acryl range (except their metallics) and then I use the Vincy V recipes for metallics (Green Stuff World Gold + Gloss metal varnish, Vallejo Air metal Magnesium and Silver). I do have the new Matt Cexwish bronze and it's really cool! Other than that, Dirty Down Rust is super cool and also Molotow Liquid Chrome is insane.

    For Runelord Brass, I actually think Scale75’s Moonstone Alchemy is a very solid substitute, mainly because it doesn’t separate like curdled milk if you leave it alone for 5 minutes. It’s just a little thicker than Runelord. Also, Army Painter Speedpaints are a top tier option and don’t let anybody tell you otherwise.

    Vallejo PREMIUM Airbrush Color (62.052) Gunmetal. (60ml is £6.00) This thing is incredible. This range is built for airbrushing things like model cars/boats/planes that are larger. This is a very dark silver, like a really charcoal grey. Its coverage with both brush and airbrush is a dream. I use it as a straight up primer in itself and it is tough as nails. Do you have anything metal you want to paint? Put this bad boy on it... Oh, a Necron army? Boom, this is the undercoat, drybrush your Vallejo Aluminum over it and call them done. If you want to get fancy with light silvers, you can. Its so good, and the cost per ml is excellent

    I got a set of Reaper miniatures paint set and they work fine. I like Apple Barrel Pavement. I use mostly white or light gray primer so this gray made a great undercoat to make it black enough to know while not darkening the detail out. A good craft paint is great for large areas base is fine. A good mother of pearl matelic. Mostly just a white matelic paint. It just has a nice edge high like for a blade. For gold. I use silver paints with all the shading and layers. Then a yellow contrast paint on top.

    Custodian speaking! And I have THOUGHTS on Gold. The mixed gold they mentioned from Vince Ventrella video is, unfortunately, irreplaceable. I've looked at literally every gold i could find, both model and art lines, and even experimented with straight up gilding my models in leaf - and the best, most consistent gold there is, is that mix. Second place is gilding - which looks Amazing when it works, and Really Bad when you screw up, and there's no good way to undo mistakes when gilding. Third place is "Pale Gold" from Golden Fluid Acrylics - the generic artist level brand from Michael's in the US. This one's a *little* green and a little pale, so feel free to darken it up with an orange ink. Honorable mention to Sepia Ink over Duraluminum from ProAcryl. I think people are sleeping hard on gilding. When it works, there's no gold paint that can possibly compare. It's much more vibrant and reflective than any metallic paint is physically capable of being, and the leaf is thin enough that you shouldn't be worried about losing details. I've done whole models and love them, and only elements on models and loved it. It's much more accessible than I think alot of people are imagining, and it's SO FAST: you can get great results in 10 minutes of work, rather than coat after coat of bad coverage from most other paint options. Imitation leaf is perfectly fine - you don't have to break the bank here. I highly, highly recommend it. The only elements you should be cautious of are elements where you notice the medium (the glue that holds the metal to the model) could pool - narrow valleys, sharp right angles in the model, etc. If it builds up or pools on itself, then it won't behave itself properly when dry. But if you avoid this pittfal, and WAIT the 25-30 minutes it takes for the medium to become workable after it's painted onto the model, you literally can just slap the metal onto the model. Use a cheap brush to press that metal into the crevices and break off the excess. If there are tears or cracks, just lay another sheet on top of them. Bada-bing-bada-boom you're done. it's really that easy.

    My gold solution works really well for trim. Gundam acrylic paint marker gold. Super simple, it's in a marker with it's own applicator and it looks great. It's not metallic per say but has a nice sheen to it. It's a little bright for Warhammer but that's part of why I use it. Stands out on the table compared to other golds

    The best gold I’ve used is Vallejo Liquid Gold. Red Gold specifically. It’s not Acrylic, so it can’t be on the list, but it covers beautifully, can be thinned with Isopropyl, can be drybrushed, and usually only requires a single coat.

    I'd say if you take a pass on the 2.0 Speedpaints because of the bad rap 1.0 earned, then you are doing yourself a disservice. They've been fantastic for me and cost literally half as much as GW Contrast with a better color range. Plus dropper bottles are just better than flip-lids to me. They don't dry out, it's easy to control how much I have in use while painting, and "how many drops" is just so much easier when mixing paints.

    Before starting the video. Ak 3rd gen and Vallejo acrilics are the best paints. All of their colours act similarly, Most of the 3rd gen acrilics cover in two thin coats (even the pastel colours) For colours I'd say: Black, White, The colours of your army/you like the most (pick around 5 at most because you can have the darker and paller versions with black and white), one or two metalics (a medium silver and a gold are always nice), one dark brown wash like agrax earthshade or the one from vallejo game colours (because its more versatile than a black wash). Matt and gloss varnish (I recommend the big bottles from vallejo premium airbrush sets) and a cheap can primer (black imo because the details that you cant reach with a brush wont be noticeable) Note, If you're painting like a space marine or a stormtrooper with white armour, pick a white or light gray primer.

    Thanks for the reminder that I don't need to buy literally everything that exists all at once when I haven't even built my first army yet. I'm just getting into the hobby and have what one might call a bad habit of impulsively latching onto large purchases without considering whether I'll even use everything in said large purchase. No I can not actually afford such large purchases with my current finances. It's good to get the reminder every now and then to slow down and actually think for a second "what paints/models/terrain/etc will I actually NEED for my first army" so that I don't end up blowing through my entire savings account before even buying any actual model kits because I spent everything on paints, tools, brushes, airbrushes and other stuff so excessively that I rendered myself unable to afford said model kits.

    Y'know, a long time ago in Covid times I bought some Eldar online really wanting to get into the hobby (again, I did as a kid but that's like over a decade ago), but I just ended up having real problems getting the paint I wanted (pink) and by the time I did, my energy to paint and get into the hobby had faded for whatever reason. I'm pretty sure my starter kit of paints all dried up or died, maybe I gave them away, I can't remember but I can't find them so the few times I did get the urge to go back to giving the hobby a try I never did. But this list actually has inspired me to maybe look at getting 3 or so basic paints, see how I go with doing up the basic looks of my Eldar, see how I feel about it. This is a really nice basic resource to just be like "Hey, so this pink is good, this white is good, this light blue is good, okay I have a base colour scheme to work with."
