Paint - Army Painter Speedpaint 2.0 Maize Yellow (2016347)

Army Painter Speedpaint 2.0 Maize Yellow is a ready-to-use hobby paint formulated for fast basecoating and efficient tabletop painting. The paint delivers an opaque, warm yellow finish that adheres to common miniature and model materials, allowing hobbyists to establish bright base tones quickly before additional shading or highlights. It is supplied in a branded dropper-style bottle designed for controlled application and minimal waste.

Advantages

This speedpaint offers high opacity for single-coat coverage on many miniature surfaces, reducing preparation time and the need for multiple layers. The fast-flowing consistency spreads evenly for smooth basecoats while maintaining enough body for precise edge work. The paint is ready to use straight from the bottle, eliminating the need for thinning for most applications and enabling quicker turnarounds on painting projects.

Suitable for

• Basecoating plastic, resin and metal miniatures
• Speed painting wargame figures for tabletop play
• Layering and blending when used with complementary paints and washes
• Hobby projects requiring bright yellow tones, such as vehicles, terrain accents and figure details

Key specifications

• Colour family: warm yellow (maize)
• Finish: opaque, satin to matte depending on material and application
• Consistency: medium viscosity optimized for brush application
• Container type: dropper-style bottle for controlled dispensing
• Application method: brush; suitable for hobby brushes and detail brushes

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to ensure an even pigment distribution. Dispense a small amount onto a palette or directly onto the brush and apply thin, even coats to the miniature surface. For best results, work in light passes to avoid obscuring fine details. Allow adequate drying time between coats; the paint is formulated to dry quickly under normal indoor conditions. If additional shading or highlights are required, apply washes, glazes or lighter tones after the basecoat has fully dried.

Usage recommendations

Store the paint upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Clean brushes promptly after use with appropriate brush cleaner or water if the paint is water-based. Test compatibility on a spare part when combining with primers, varnishes or other paint systems.
