Well as promised I gave the five paints a go on the goats this evening and to be honest I am impressed straight off.

So as you can see, from the above they look really good and do what they are meant to. Interestingly the papyrus dip looks more skeletal than the skeleton brown.
Now I had one minor issue, and by minor I mean minor…

5 seconds later I had a hole.
Soo what are my first opinions…love these. The colours look good. Now as i said I got these at a reduced price. Tomorrow comes the big test to see whether I jump on a whole lot more.
That test is reactivation…I deliberately painted the whole miniature to see if it would cause issues with colour bleeds when I repaintthe bits that need a different colour… the two little goats will be a different colour tomorrow evening.
James got invited to try something different this evening…

He was dead chuffed getting second place after a joint shoot off for first.
Not a contrast fan, so I’ll comment on the other topic … Number 4 Station on the Skeet range, very nice!

Paints look good! 🙂 Coming second place with a shotgun nearly as big as yourself’s quite an achievement, so well done James! 🙂

First impressions are good, but you’re right that the test seems to be how well these contrast alternatives work when you use more than one of them on a model.
