Kurgan the Lurker Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Came across this on Facebook after someone mentioned you can beta-test their paints (1 bottler per person). Currently it is their metallics in the beta stage: http://www.warcolours.com/index.php?route=common%2Fhome Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310583-warcolours-paint-line/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlson793 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Let's see... 3 Euros shipping. At current rates that's $3.43. Roughly what I pay for Vallejo bottles. And I do need a copper paint to add to my metallics.

Razblood Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 They're out of copper :( Though I may just pick up the basics set next month as these paints intrigue me.

1000 Sons Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 One of the guys who started this company is a regular on the bugmans brewery boards for dwarf whfb. He is a chemist for a paint company and his main goal was good paints, for a good price. The testing of the paints on the bugmans board seems to have gone well. I plan on buying a set, tired of my gw paints not closing properly and getting thick and goopy. Here is a link to the paint and some feedback.http://www.coolminiornot.com/forums/showthread.php?59695-A-New-Line-Of-Miniature-Paints-Is-Being-Born Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310583-warcolours-paint-line/#findComment-4112632 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razblood Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Ok, ordered the basics set today. I'll do a little review of them when I get them. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310583-warcolours-paint-line/#findComment-4113356 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razblood Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Set arrived today, about to put them through their paces, review will be put up when I get the chance.

Kaedes Nex Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 I might give these guys a try (out of my own pocket), since from what I see they look pretty cool. The bio on the creator just makes it more reassuring. They have multi-country currency that accepts USD, they use droppers, their website is clean, minimalistic, and looks good. What really caught my eye was the cheap, empty droppers they sell so you can put your P3, Citadel, or FW paints in, and they're made of what looks like very crystal clear "LDPE plastic", unlike the foggy, semi-opaque droppers you get from Vallejo and other companies that distort the colors.

Razblood Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Well so far I'm finding that they work similarly to 90's Citadel paints, some colours are standing out and they do blend quite easily. But I'm gonna do a bit more experimenting before I do a review :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310583-warcolours-paint-line/#findComment-4120527 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormxlr Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I already pay 1 pound a pot for Vallejo Game Colours , I dont live in UK and would like to try his paints but shipping it here would be a bitch.

SW1 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Like the look of these. The empty dropper bottles also are a really great buy. Price point is spot on!!!

warcolours Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 After the successful launch of our acrylic paint line (www.warcolours.com), consisting of 92 beautiful colors, we have embarked on our trip to our next target, which was to produce a high quality, yet affordable, line of metallic paints. We have sent out 40 bottles of our BETA testing copper paint to miniature painters all over the world. The feedback was really good and everybody really liked the paint. (see the online discussions here). After making the required alterations to the paint formulas, the metallic paints have been perfected and are ready to be launched. We have formulated a total of 20 different metallic paints, making the WARCOLOURS metallic range the most versatile metallic range out there. We have even managed to offer metallic colours that have never been seen by miniature painters before (i.e. metallic red), and some classic metallics, missed by many are offered (i.e. violet, blue, green etc). Why pre-order? First of all you will receive a discounted price and secondly: Paint production and bottle filling, requires exact quantities, Rather than producing an estimated amount of bottles for each metallic colour and risking under/over-production (leading to delays, time-wasting and increased costs), we decided to offer them as a pre-order. This way we will be producing the correct number of bottles for each colour, minimising our costs and ultimately offering the best possible price.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I bet those metallic blue and green colors will be popular with Heresy Alpha Legion fans.

Slips Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I bet those metallic blue and green colors will be popular with Heresy Alpha Legion fans. I'd wager that Purple would be popular as well. We dont see that many Amethyst Alpha Legion around..
