Angel Green: Similar to GW Caliban Green. Despite the name, it’s a bit more muted and less vibrant than old GW Dark Angels Green. There is a matching Color Primer for this. My recommended highlight colour: Greenskin. In total, the Speedpaint Mega Set 2.0 features 46 colours, 3 metallics, and 1 Speedpaint Medium - a total of 50 bottles - enabling you to paint beautiful tabletop-quality miniatures in no time! Simply apply one rich coat of Speedpaint directly over a primed miniature and you are done. All colours are using tried and true high-quality heavy pigments. Oak Brown: A dark brown, not too vibrant, not too muted, not too reddish. It’s very close to GW Dryad Bark. My recommended highlight colour: Werewolf Fur, Leather Brown or Dirt Splatter. Elven Flesh: A light vibrant flesh tone with a nuance of orange or yellow. Similar to GW Ungor Flesh. My recommended highlight colour: Corpse Pale. Uniform Grey: A medium, neutral grey similar to GW Dawnstone, but slightly cooler. Pretty good coverage. There is also a matching Color Primer for this. My recommended highlight colour: Ash Grey.

Castle Grey: A medium, warm grey. It’s very similar to Stormvermin Fur, only a nuance lighter. My recommended highlight colour: Filthy Cape. However, the Mega Set 2.0 will prove valuable to those who can afford it and want to either experiment with their painting experience or just want to get some models bished, bashed and boshed. It’s a shame my rating will have to be marred by the exploding dropper bottles, but had it not been for that, these would have been very easy to recommend.Poisonous Cloud: A bright and vibrant lime green. Works great for highlighting GW Moot Green, or for Jungle Green and Witch Brew. Like a lot of bright greens, the coverage is weak. Mutant Hue: Quite similar to Toxic Boils, but a bit more muted and reddish, more like a grape violet.

Fire Lizard: Doesn’t look exactly as on the paint swatch in real life. It’s not a light brownish orange, but more of a mustard yellow. It’s very similar to GW Averland Sunset. Elf Green: A dark drab green. It’s very similar to GW Death World Forest, just a nuance less olive.My recommended highlight colour: Army Green.Stone Golem: A very light warm grey, lighter than on the colour swatch. Compared to GW Pallid Wych Flesh it’s slightly less reddish. Would be useful to mix with Castle Grey, Field Grey, Dark Stone or GW Stormvermin Fur for highlighting. The consistency of my bottle was a bit thin. My recommended highlight colour: Spaceship Exterior. It’s important to know that variations like this happen with other paint ranges, too. For example, I bought a bottle of Brassy Brass from Vallejo lately that was much lighter than the bottle I got years ago. Verdict Troll Claws: A versatile light ochre that would be useful for highlighting Warpaints Basilisk Brown or GW Tau Light Ochre. My recommended highlight colour: Corpse Pale. Lava Orange: A deep vibrant orange, similar to GW Troll Slayer Orange. My recommended highlight colour: Mythical Orange. Before we properly begin, we’d like to thank The Army Painter for sending us this set for review. Army Painter Speedpaint Mega Set 2.0 Review – Contents

Tanned Flesh: A tanned reddish skin tone that is excellent for shading Warpaints Barbarian Flesh. It’s a very close match for GW Ratskin Flesh. My recommended highlight colour: Barbarian Flesh or Kobold Skin. Gorgon Hide: A very light, almost white pale blue-grey. My recommended highlight colour: Matt White. Wolf Grey: A medium blueish grey… or greyish blue? It’s almost an exact match for GW Russ Grey, just a nuance more blueish. Covers very well. There is also a Color Primer for this. My recommended highlight colour: Fog Grey. Jungle Green: A bright, almost neon green. Similar to GW Moot Green but slightly more bright and vibrant. Almost exactly the same as VGC Scorpy Green, makes a great replacement for old GW Scorpion Green,too, if you remember this paint. Coverage is below average. My recommended highlight colour: Poisonous Cloud.

I actually think they match much better than Citadel paints to their respective spray paints. I have a can of Mechanicus Standard Grey, and the difference to the paint version is much more noticeable than with The Army Painter’s products – the grey has a slight yellowish-greenish hue that isn’t present in the paint. The 96 acrylic colours Ultramarines Blue: A medium blue with a nuance of violet. It’s similar to GW Altdorf Guard Blue, but a nuance darker. Also available as a Color Primer. My recommended highlight colour: Electric Blue.

Army Green: This is a pale, greyish green. Opacity is above average. A great colour to highlight Elf Green, Crypt Wraith or Cultist Robe, or GW Lothern Green. It’s an almost exact match for GW Straken Green, maybe just a nuance more greyish. There is also a Color Primer for this one. My recommended highlight colour: Combat Fatigues.

Witch Brew: A yellowish, vibrant lime green with pretty good opacity. Compared to GW Moot Green, it’s much more yellowish. My recommended highlight colour: Poisonous Cloud. Dungeon Grey: A medium, neutral grey. It’s an almost exact match for GW Dawnstone. My recommended highlight colour: Ash Grey. Banshee Brown: A pale, light warm brown that is similar to GW Rakarth Flesh, but less greyish. Useful for mixing into browns for highlighting. My recommended highlight colour: Brainmatter Beige.
