Top 10 Contrast Paint 2.0 | My Favorite Picks | Warhammer 40k & Sigmar

[HobbyNight]

Which contrast color is your favorite?

[Nick-fhwd]

These contrast paint videos have been so useful to me.

[WhoThaCazer]

Garaghak's Sewer is so nice for dirt and grime

[sl-linbi]

Thank you for posting your videos much needed in this community

Mantis Warrior Green is my new favorite as it replaces my old formula for Ork skin. Rather the formula I stole from you. I just love this color. Thanks for the list. I have to pick up some Sigvald Burgundy to do some scars and gore on my Kill Team Ork Kommandos!

I decided yesterday to add Luxion, Ironjawz, Striking Scorpion and Aeldari Emerald to my 18 other contrast paints.

I was really in need of a purple. Wasn't satisfied with the ones I obtained mixing other contrast paints
I have Iyanden Yellow with its orange shadows is fine, it allowed me to get a beautiful orange while mixing it with Blood Angel Red, but I wanted a more pure contrasted yellow in addition.
Only have one green (Warp Lightning), so I needed other tones.

I just bought Volupus Pink a couple of month ago, I wish I would have waited and got Sigvald instead.
Asurmen seems pretty, but it is too close from Talassar.
Garaghak's Sewer is very nice, but I got all the other browns already, so I will try to mix a touch of Wyldwood with Aggaros or Snakebite. It might do the trick.

So far for me is Striking Scorpion for my Necrons. I wanted to get them to look Dawn of War style where what I found out was when they are primed with Admech Grey and shaded with Nuln Oil it gives it a really cool looking dark grey color then I use Striking Scorpion for a more "activating weapon" kind of glow and the tesseract glow for more of a normal glow look.

I'm all about Magmadroth Flame for all my volkite weapons. Sigvald burgundy, garaghaks sewer and pylar glacier are also some of my new go too paints.

[leggi]

I’m basing my Phalanx for sword and spear, on 120mm square bases with a six figure frontage and four ranks deep

[beneisen]

I don't have firsthand experience with contrasts, but luxian purple, storm fiend, and sigvald burgendy

[bacawaka]

My top 10 is contrast medium and what ever acrylic paint I want to use at the time. 😁 granted i have been on an oil paint thing lately because blends and not worrying about paint drying and stuff.

[Jacen]

Great video! What paints would you recommend for Green Cloaks and Fabrics? 💚

[jamesw]

I must be doing something wrong with my Templar black because I never see any contrasting with it. Could be the primer I’m using or maybe I need to water it down if use Contrasts medium. Thanks for the review. I agree Baal is a fantastic shade and I love it. I need to try out the other new colors you recommend.

[johnnyutah]

I agree with Ultramarines blue, it’s too dark for me and often leaves a mottled effect on power armour. I went to Talasaar blue instead, love that colour and gives my Ultramarines that classic 90’s look, with red bolters and yellow trims.

[freeRadioArmageddon]

Find it fitting I own 6 of the 10.. any guesses on the 4 I need now 😂

[Khae]

Hi, Which primer did you use for the minis ? The new white scar ?

[OrakelofDeath]

ca 11:52 : Okay.... where is the "I want your gene-seed"-Picture from?

[MrKieras]

I'd go Apothecary White, all over the face, yeehaw

[GreySeerSqueek]

No examples of the honorable mentions?

[paladinpariah]

Still refuse to use contrast paints even though Speed Paints have revolutionized my painting work flow.

Not paying twice as much for the same product.

Gravelord Gray is my most used Speed Paint.
