I love videos like these and they all looked pretty good on regular primer. Very good video! Here is some constructive criticism for your new channel meant to help it grow. The video seems to be more about primer differences. It would have been nice to also have a typical brush on white primer (citadel or vallejo) for comparison. Also, not having the faces painted really limits the comparison. The main thing I got out of the video is that they all look pretty good on standard white spray primer, so go with the cheapest one in your area. I have been using a warm light flesh tone (Vallejo Basic Skin Tone) base over a white primer and then adding AP Crusader Skin for most of my Caucasian skin tones. Good luck and keep the videos coming:)
Thank you the comment, I myself usually only do airbrush primer but I saw these cans at my local hardware store and I wanted to give them a try. I haven't use brush on primer since back in the 90's probably. I absolutely hate brush on primer, It never felt like It gave me a good coverage so I always use airbrush or cans like in this case. Thanks again!
By their name based on brand, but there are too many now, so most use either contrast or speed for shorthand. Warcolour has Antithesis, Scalle75 has Instant etc etc. Theyre all the same family, so AP and Citadel naming conventions usually take over
Mistakes with speed paints are so much more forgiving thanks to the reactivation. A little water can clean back any mistakes, and when moving to a darker colour you don't even need to worry. Just paint over with the darker speed paint and reactivate the mistake and the small amount of pigment just blends into new colour. Honestly one of my favourite features of speed paint vs contrast, and it even works here in Australia where even speed paints dry in a couple of minutes.
@@WePlayGames1 imperial fist for contrast, speedpaint blood red and plasmatic bolt from 1.0, and I will be testing the vallejo this weekend with a batch of minis and objective markers, but velvet red and carribean turquoise look like front runners.

I bunch them together with glazes in my mind and call them transparent paints (as opposted to opaque paints, which are mostly base/layer paints)
When you were showing the two speedpaint figures, the one you thought was lighter was because the primer was a brighter white.

I them by whichever brand I've primarily used most recently, so mostly speedpaints, even though theres some GW and Vallejo in the mix now.
Which ones do you like the most so far?

Splodge paints - just splodge it on!!!
I think when the new speed paints from Army painter come out, they will be much better and should have their issues fixed.
