When it may not be suitable

This set is designed primarily for hobby and miniature painting; the small 8 ml bottles may not be economical for large-area painting or professional fine art canvases. Users requiring specialized colours, finishes (such as metallics beyond the included tones) or larger volumes may prefer single larger-format paints or specialist lines.

Key specifications

• Contents: 40 x 8 ml (0.27 fl oz) bottles
• Type: Water-based acrylic (Game Color)
• Includes: assortment of 40 colours plus washes and one synthetic round brush no. 0
• Typical uses: miniature painting, modelling, craft work

How to use

Shake each bottle before use. Apply paints directly from the bottle or thin with water for glazes and smoother flow; washes may be applied to recesses and then removed from raised areas to create shading effects. Use the included synthetic round brush for fine details, and clean brushes with water immediately after use. For best results, allow successive layers to dry between applications.

What to consider before purchase

• Colour selection: verify that the included colours match your project needs.
• Volume: 8 ml bottles are suited to detailed work but may be small for large surfaces.
• Medium compatibility: water-based acrylics are thinnable with water and compatible with standard miniature varnishes and primers.

Usage recommendations

For miniature painting, prime your figures before applying Game Color paints, thin paints slightly for smooth layers, and use the washes to enhance recesses and texture. Store bottles upright and tightly closed to preserve consistency.
