Description

The silver paints are okay, but rather thin, their consistency is more like airbrush paint and much thinner than the old Game Color metallics. You can work with them, but they are not as good as Steel from the Vallejo Model Air series and Steel and Dark Steel from the Mecha Color series. Those are also airbrush paints, but their opacity is higher and they apply more nicely with a brush. Moreover, those three colours correspond very closely to the classic three silver paints from Games Workshop: Mithril Silver, Chainmail, and Boltgun Metal (or Stormhost Silver, Iron Hands Steel, and Leadbelcher for those that aren’t a grizzly Grey Hunter like me), whereas the new Game Color Gun Metal is significantly darker than Leadbelcher, and even darker than Iron Warriors. The new Game Colors should already be available from our partner shops Wayland Games, Element Games, Firestorm Games, and Taschengelddieb, which all have them at an additional discount. All in all, with a few exceptions the Special FX colours are not bad, and better than The Army Painters’ Effect paints in my opinion. Though if in doubt, I would always go for the Technical Paints from Games Workshop. I feel these are more straight-forward to use, and do what they say on the tin better. But for those who want to create more subtle effects and like to experiment, the Game Color Special FX paints might be worth a look. Game Color Additives & varnishes review The coloured washes on the other hand are very bright compared to their counterparts from Games Workshop or The Army Painter. Especially Yellow Wash, which is almost unusable because the yellow pigment they chose is so light that you can hardly see the wash even over white primer. Red, blue and purple are ok, but the red and blue washes are also very bright, so they are only suitable for shading really light colours, which limits their usefulness. Game Color Inks review To a degree, the same is true for the bronze paints, which are also rather thin, here I would prefer Runelord Brass and Brass Scorpion. Hammered Copper and Tinny Tin are decent, however, and cover well.

Create unique images: Import pictures from your gallery or snap a photo to turn your memories into color by number masterpieces. The number of each color is shown in your palette at the bottom of the screen. Use those colors to fill in the corresponding squares on your image until you have a vibrant picture! The Game Inks also stayed pretty much the same, which is good news for those that liked the old Game Color Inks. However, they removed Brown and Smokey Ink, which of all things were the only ones I was still using, and added a new Magenta Ink, Dark Turquoise Ink, and White Ink instead. This is a great game for both children and adults to play. Children can learn the basics of coloring and understand different colors and shades. Adults, on the other hand, will appreciate the beautiful artwork and the chance to relax and unwind for a while.

A set of highly pigmented acrylic colours developed for painting fantasy or science fiction miniatures, the Vallejo Game Color Set provides paints that adhere to plastics and metals perfectly, brushing on easily and smoothly and drying to an opaque, matt finish that is waterproof once dry. highly pigmented acrylic colors formulated to provide an especially mat and opaque coating which covers all primers and base colors in one application.

Inclusive and diverse art: Immerse yourself in a rich variety of color by number art from different cultures and artists, promoting creativity and inclusiveness. And that was the complete new Game Color range in fast forward, except for the 24 Xpress Colors, which I have reviewed in a separate review. The Special FX paints are Vallejo’s answer to Citadel’s Technical paints, and here I faced mixed results. There are plenty of online color games to choose from. You can color in with a game like Creative Coloring for Kids, or enjoy vivid, entrancing effects in the game Kaleidoscope.Diverse painting tools: Experiment with different tools to make coloring and drawing more fun and efficient. This compact range has been especially developed to contain all the frequently used colours in fantasy figures, in a formula particularly designed for adherence on plastics and metals, using a new resin of unequalled durability and resistance to scrapes and abrasion. Colours brush on easily and smoothly, and dry to an opaque, matte finish. Their finely ground texture makes them perfect for the most miniature details as well as for large surfaces. They are highly pigmented, light fast and waterproof once dry. Errors can be corrected immediately with water or a small amount of alcohol. Game color is a special selection of fine waterbased acrylic colours maunfactured with a special resin and permanent pigments for miniatures figures in fantasy and war games. Last but not least, we have a few additives, like a metallic medium which is basically white metallic particles you can mix into other paints to give them a metallic sheen. There is also an airbrush thinner and glaze medium, as well as four varnishes from glossy to ultra matt. There are also quite a few new colours that close some of the gaps of the old range, 44 colours in total. Nevertheless, the Game Color range is quite small compared to Citadel or Reaper, and what I’m still missing are petrol colours, more grey tones, dark skin tones, and more muted and natural light skin tones, as all of the light skin tones in the Game Color range are quite pink and peach. New Game Colors’ features & properties

Colors can illustrate shapes and patterns, which offers superb visuals for puzzle games like Blue and Lines. These games combine colors with music to create a beautiful and immersive experience. Online Color Games Personally, I prefer the formula of the new Xpress Colors, and I’m not sure whether having two almost identical products in a single paint range was really necessary. I would have preferred the Inks to be migrated to the Xpress Color range instead, but that’s just me. Remember, when painting miniatures it’s not always about right or wrong, but different approaches that are all equally valid. There are many roads that lead to Terra, and if you were an avid user of the old Game Color Inks then you’ll be happy they haven’t changed. Game Color Fluorescent paints review

But the big question remains: Are the new Game Colors compatible with the old ones? I already listed at the beginning of the video which colours have been discontinued, but what about old and new colours with the same name? Did they stay the same? Can you switch from old to new during your painting projects without any issues? Now a lot of pro painters favour matt paints, but keep in mind that matt paints are more prone to abrasion as matt resins are not as strong as more glossy ones. Old vs. new Game Color match
