Paint Army Painter Speedpaint 2.0 Raging Sea – acrylic miniature paint, single 18 ml bottle

Army Painter Speedpaint 2.0 Raging Sea is an acrylic miniature paint supplied in a single 18 ml bottle, designed to simplify and accelerate painting of tabletop miniatures and scale models. The formula combines a pigmented base with integrated shading and highlighting effects to produce layered results with fewer steps. It is suitable for use on common miniature materials and formulated to flow and adhere well to detailed surfaces without heavy thinning.

Advantages

This Speedpaint provides built-in depth and contrast, reducing the need for multiple separate washes and highlights. The acrylic formula dries to a durable matte finish and is balanced for good opacity from a single coat while still accepting additional layers. Packaged in a standard 18 ml bottle with a controlled dispenser, it supports precise application and minimal waste for hobbyists seeking consistent, repeatable results.

Suitable for

• Painting plastic, resin and metal miniatures

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to ensure pigments and contrast agents are evenly mixed. Apply directly from the bottle with a brush or transfer a small amount to a palette if preferred. Use thin, controlled coats and allow each coat to dry before adding more layers to intensify highlights or shading. For best adhesion, ensure miniatures are clean and primed with an appropriate primer for acrylic paints. Clean brushes with water immediately after use.

Usage recommendations

For consistent results, apply a thin base layer and let the built-in shading settle naturally; avoid overworking wet paint to preserve the contrast effect. When blending with other paints, test compatibility on a spare piece to confirm adhesion and colour balance.
