Hi all,

Is anyone using green stuff worlds new(ish) Maxx Formula paints? I have a bunch of them and everyone I have used so far has been excellent and I found their white is on a par with pro acryl bold titanium white. Maybe not quite as good but very close and much cheaper.

Any other thoughts?

No, sorry.

I've picked up some of their paints recently and they are pretty dang good, Red Truth has to be the best bright red I've tried.

Only downside so far is that some of them don't play well with my wet pallet, but it's easy enough to re-hydrate them.

I would of loved to use paints, and other things, from green stuff world, if their shipping was not astronomically expensive and calculated proportionately to the order size.
Last time I tried to buy something for like $70 the shipping cost was like $50 and almost the same as my order, so I though, ok, let me just increase the order to about $300 so I wont feel too bad for paying $50 for shipping, tried to check out and saw the shipping coast re-calculated to $150. Canceled the whole thing.

Yeah I try to buy from uk retailers but some stuff is only available from their website and postage is high but not as high as ordering from USA, by a long shot. It’s a shame they don’t have a warehouse in the US.

The reds are on my shopping list
