Army Painter Speedpaint Mega Set review - Puck head edition

[@frugal10191]

So good to see Puck's head out in the wild ;)

[@virrcraft]

That's for sure ☺️

[@snakeytales]

Looks great man!

[@virrcraft]

thank you for your kind words :)

[@miniaturesblueprint5798]

Amazing Video ! :D

[@virrcraft]

Thank you! :) I hope next will be amazing as well!

[@chalkboy8]

I also put them on contrast paint lids! I also use a Liquitex matte varnish to seal them up.

[@virrcraft]

Awesome! And how it looks with varnish? I’m still thinking- should I or not…

[@arkhamcreed4326]

Holy White is actually best used on plain white. That's because it's actually a pale grey color that acts like a wash, receding to the low points and leaving the high points nearly unpainted. Because the color you primed your lids was so close to what Holy White actually dries as you can't even see it. The effect is extremely subtle, and using it on anything darker than white tends to screw it up.

[@virrcraft]

Thank you for sharing this! It’s really interesting and helpful

[@arkhamcreed4326]

@@virrcraft Indeed, Holy White tends to behave a bit differently than the other speedpaints. I bought it as a single because I tend to paint a lot of white fur with my artic D&D setting, and its fantastic for that. You just have to make sure you're painting on a white base instead of grey.

[@virrcraft]

@@arkhamcreed4326 I definitely will try it now to better understand how it works 👍🏻
Thanks, really appreciate.
I don’t have arctic minis yet, but ave a plan to paint ghost or banshee… so for ghostly white it should work as well

[@PaintHandDan]

Hey Virr Craft!! 3 questions:
1) which speedpaint color is your favorite?
2) do you apply a sealant or clearcoat after they dry?
3)will you eventually do a review of the newer speedpaints being released as well?
-I'm excited for the new metallics!

[@virrcraft]

Hey-hey :)
Ok, let's go point-by-point:
1) hard to say, depends on the needs. but in general I really like how Palid Bone and Blood Red looks. Hardened Leather and Orc Skin are nice as well, because I more like medival fantasy style of minis. Almost for all of them I can find some suitable place
2) yes, I'm using Varnish Matte. Not sure should I or not... I'm new in painting, as I said. But it seems like models are better protected with varnish.
3) We will see, before your question, I didn’t even know that they were going to release some new colors or speedpaints :)

[@PaintHandDan]

​@@virrcraft i like plasmatic bolt and pallid bone is a MUST HAVE!!
I started with clearcoats, but recently I like to let it "remix" itself on the model as I go - it's good both ways!
If you do review the new ones - I'll be there👍

[@virrcraft]

@@PaintHandDan thank you :) we will see what will be released!

[@virrcraft]

Free STL Puck Head already available on TableFlipFoundry website! Link in the description!

[@kraziel]

their link is downloading a corrupted ZIP file. I cannot extract :/

[@virrcraft]

@@kraziel just checked and it's working fine for me - are you sure that it's not something with your interner or hard drive? www.tableflipfoundry.com/ - on main page banner with Puck's heads

[@kraziel]

@@virrcraft Thank you. I got it to work after downloading 6 times, it finally unzipped without corruption.

[@virrcraft]

@@kraziel that's strange, but luckily you managed to download the file! :)

[@jcanada5549]

Is there somewhere you can go to and buy the heads? Great idea, I just don’t want to have to buy a 3d printer. Thanks for doing the video too!

[@virrcraft]

Thank you for watching!
Actually it’s not commercial product, so you can ask someone to print it for you. If you don’t have friends with 3d printer - you can check local guys who doing printing. File with Pucks head available for free on table flip foundry website (link in the description). It’s presupposed and ready for printing!

[@Raykrueger]

Subscribed! :) Where'd you get that slick paint rack? I recently printed one that used an insane amount of PLA. Yours looks much more reasonable

[@virrcraft]

thank you so much for subscribing! I found this on Thingiverse. give me a moment - will try to find the link

I wish I knew…

[@lexiaojun]

Good job reviewing the speedpaints from last year while the new line releases next month 🤦‍♂

[@virrcraft]

good job to put a toxic comment for the guy with 21 subscriber, well done! I feel you really proud what you did!

[@yuliyalahvinenka9703]

Oh, man…

[@TableFlipFoundry]

I think maybe you missed the point. I think maybe hes showcasing a fun way to demonstrate a practical example of the colors of these paints. I don't think he really actually reviewed the product of the paints at all. The Puck heads have never been released to the public before, so...hes showcasing a new product nobody has ever seen using a new product he's never used before.

[@PaintHandDan]

​​@@virrcraft 💪🎨pure class sir.
But.. its actually 24 subs now!!!
