Actually having just Google'd

I may get talasaar blue and blood angels red,
The blue over corax white looks almost like enchanted blue which I like, the red will be a tester

I bought all of them before even trying any. I know, crazy right?

Anyway, I'm pretty happy with them. Been painting my Gloomspite Gitz basically and as you know they're all skin and cloth so contrast paints are more or less perfect for them. The amount of time saved is just immense. Also I have to add that painting with contrasts is just a blast, so much fun. I'll still bust out the airbrush and the old bag of tricks when I want to paint singular models (like heroes/HQ) Very Nicely <tm>. However when painting whole ARMIES contrast paints are just a godsend.

I just wish everyone fielding hordes of grey dudesmen would find contrast paints and put even just a little bit of effort to bring that army to life. Would make wargaming that much more pleasant for everyone.

This is exactly how I’m using it for my Free Peoples and Gitz. Really good to get the troops looking nice enough and gives you more time to paint the heroes and smaller elite units normally.
