A range of acrylic paints designed for miniature painting, this product simplifies the process of base coating, shading, and highlighting in a single application. The paints are formulated with a thin consistency and a high concentration of pigment, allowing them to flow easily into recesses and create a shaded effect while leaving higher areas lighter, thus providing definition and contrast with minimal effort. A typical use case would involve applying the paint over a light-colored primer to achieve a tabletop-ready miniature in a reduced timeframe.
The introduction of this painting method significantly impacted the miniature wargaming hobby. It allows both novice and experienced painters to achieve impressive results quickly, increasing accessibility and reducing the time commitment required for completing projects. This development is important because it addresses a common barrier to entry in the hobby: the perceived difficulty and time investment required for painting miniatures to a satisfactory standard. The paints facilitated a faster, more forgiving painting process, thereby expanding the appeal of miniature wargaming and tabletop gaming to a wider audience.
