I've not ...Hi Matthew, thanks for the comment!<br /><br />I've not had any issues in mixing them with GW, Vallejo or P3 paints - though they don't keep well on a wet palette when mixed (or generally longer than a day or 2). Something seems to happen with the Matt-ness of the pigment and they end up drying very chalky if you leave them too long.<br /><br />Otherwise though, excellent paints!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />CMDanteCMDantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08284979536898155953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878309668789321166.post-81986910363574386732015-11-20T11:41:43.371+00:002015-11-20T11:41:43.371+00:00Thanks for sharing, been looking at them as wantin...Thanks for sharing, been looking at them as wanting a few other ranges to complement the Wargames Foundry Paints (Really nice, developed as a triad system, to help painters) one usually uses with a few GW ones or inks.<br /><br />How well do the paints and inks play well with other paints.??Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10247453774169992114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878309668789321166.post-29576081325465314772015-09-03T12:57:29.476+01:002015-09-03T12:57:29.476+01:00Great review and very interesting reading.

The difference is that you get one less bottle of a repeated colour (white or black - can't remember which) that is duplicated across two of the sets when purchased in the 8 bottle sets.<br /><br />You are right though, you'd still have to buy the inks separately but that's not much of an inconvenience. :)CMDantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08284979536898155953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878309668789321166.post-54551785547580015662015-04-22T20:06:12.805+01:002015-04-22T20:06:12.805+01:00I am thinking about the mega set.

Ratio of paint to...Hi Wayne, thanks for commenting. Ratio of paint to thinner will depend on your setup (primarily the pressure you are using) and will vary slightly between different paints - some colours seem to be a bit thicker than others.<br /><br />Generally I put about 6-7 drops of thinner and then load paint in on a paintbrush and mix it in the cup until the consistency looks about right. Always give a test spray on an old model or a sheet of paper though to make sure it's not too thin or too thick.CMDantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08284979536898155953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878309668789321166.post-55646186048223151492015-04-18T20:05:14.193+01:002015-04-18T20:05:14.193+01:00Hi great article I've bought the range and was...Hi great article I've bought the range and was wondering what is the best ratio of paint to thinner for airbrushing these paints?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02533454405173255974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878309668789321166.post-74341616728535602812015-04-15T09:30:19.279+01:002015-04-15T09:30:19.279+01:00scalegames.com is where you can get them in the US...scalegames.com is where you can get them in the USA.

The side effect of this is a more satin finish than the standard colour range - probably more in lone with current GW and Vallejo paints.<br /><br />@ Mark - glad you found the review helpful! The mega set does indeed include the full range of 8 skin tone colours. Worth a look of you plan to pick up the full range in one fell swoop :)CMDantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08284979536898155953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878309668789321166.post-62151868480581695992015-02-05T18:32:18.914+00:002015-02-05T18:32:18.914+00:00Thanks for a great review.
