If you're...Reaper Masters series, all the way. If you're going with Vallejo, get VMC. VGC is just too thin and doesn't cover any better. <br /><br />The RMS paint is great, flows nicely, and the triads make shades and highlights really easy to find if you're looking for quick and easy. They work very similarly to the Foundry paints in that respect.<br /><br />The P3 paints are also really nice, and the coverage is superb.<br /><br />I use mostly P3 with some RMS in there, and 1 or 2 colors of VMC that I either couldn't find elsewhere, or had left over from previous purchases. It's getting time to replace a few of the P# colors I've used a lot, and I'm not sure if I'm going to replace them with P3 or pick out a few RMS colors.AoMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834413388942295553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900510952723355056.post-60429530239306432842009-06-08T18:45:44.355-04:002009-06-08T18:45:44.355-04:00Vallejo Game Color and Model Color are both superi...Vallejo Game Color and Model Color are both superior products, but I mentioned the Game Color line simply because they have GW color equivalents, so it will be easier to match colors.

Wow, thanks for the kind gesture! ...@ 25mm Warrior<br /><br />Wow, thanks for the kind gesture! I'm honestly not sure the eyes on my miniatures are really good enough to warrant a tutorial, but I'll see what I can do about maybe putting something up. I'm still learning about this hobby on a daily basis, so maybe a POV from the perspective of a hobbyist struggling with all of the frustrations model painting brings to the table can be helpful.Paul Wuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10936952941124875623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900510952723355056.post-6089330055712147342009-06-08T04:49:40.684-04:002009-06-08T04:49:40.684-04:00Oh yeah gave you a shout out on my blog... with ma...Oh yeah gave you a shout out on my blog... with material this good you need more followers there mate!<br /><br />Please do a tutorial about how you do those eyes... would help us all out me thinks :)The 25mm Warriorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13012894032261378422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900510952723355056.post-52500103672144783042009-06-08T00:49:40.768-04:002009-06-08T00:49:40.768-04:00Hmm, it seems like my next major hobby purchase wo...Hmm, it seems like my next major hobby purchase would wisely be some Vallejo paints (I'm looking at the 72 bottle suitcase sets they sell) rather than more miniatures that would just join the massive backlog of miniatures I have sitting on my shelves.<br /><br />@ scdarkangel<br /><br />santa cruz warhammer's a great site, btw. I've been visiting it and lurking ever since I got into the hobby. Keep up the good work and thanks for visiting!<br /><br />@ Jonathan<br /><br />I assume, then, that you would recommend the Vallejo Game Color paints over the Model Color paints?Paul Wuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10936952941124875623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900510952723355056.post-76299691683336379152009-06-07T23:25:54.551-04:002009-06-07T23:25:54.551-04:00I've weened myself off GW paints and move to V...I've weened myself off GW paints and move to Vallejo Game Color, and I couldn't be happier. I know the price point on these is high compared to CeramCoat, but I think you'll find the quality worth every penny. Your conversions look great, so don't skimp on the paint!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900510952723355056.post-75024230780000830322009-06-07T20:07:41.119-04:002009-06-07T20:07:41.119-04:00nice work on the guardsmen , great paint work, I r...nice work on the guardsmen , great paint work, I recently started to buy Vallejo paints and I am very happy with them , they have more paint in the pot and I like the consistency, and the squeeze bottle seems to waste less.<br /><br />John<br />Santa Cruz WarhammerSC Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10028391865314109394noreply@blogger.com
