Brush paint, also known as hand-painting paint, is specifically formulated for applying with a brush. It’s ideal for intricate details, small areas, and fine lines on model scale products.
Airbrush paint is specifically designed for airbrushing techniques. It’s suitable for covering large areas and achieving smooth gradients.
Remember, whether you’re hand-painting or airbrushing, choosing the right paint type and technique depends on your specific project and desired outcome. Happy modeling!

The official thinner for Speedpaint: this 18ml resin medium lets you dial back shading intensity, build smooth glazes and tints, or stretch a color for large surfaces — without breaking the one-coat formula the way water does. If you paint with any Speedpaints, a bottle of Medium belongs on the bench next to them. Use it with the Speedpaint Starter Set 2.0 and keep your custom dilutions in Paint Mixing Empty Bottles so you can repeat them later. Features Thins Speedpaint to any consistency while keeping the self-shading behavior intact — water alone weakens it. Reduce shading intensity for subtle effects, or glaze and tint over finished work. 18ml spill-free dropper bottle, pre-loaded with two stainless mixing balls. Water-based, non-toxic (ASTM D-4236 compliant). Mix in an empty dropper bottle to create repeatable custom dilutions for airbrushing or large scenery areas. Scale-independent — one bottle serves every project on the bench. More Information Brand The Army Painter Item Number WP2000P Size 18 ml dropper bottle Type Acrylic resin medium (Speedpaint thinner) Condition New UPC/EAN 5713799200081 FAQ Why not just thin Speedpaint with water?A little water is fine, but past ~10% it breaks the resin formula and the one-coat shading gets blotchy. Medium thins without destabilizing it. How much do I use?Add a drop at a time. A 1:1 mix roughly halves shading intensity; a few drops in a full strength color just improves flow. Does it work with regular acrylics too?It's formulated for Speedpaint. For standard acrylics, ordinary acrylic medium or water works fine. Is one bottle enough?18ml of medium goes a long way — you use drops, not pours. One bottle typically outlasts several Speedpaints.

More Information Brand The Army Painter Item Number WP8062P Bottle Size 18 ml each (10 bottles) Condition New UPC/EAN 5713799806207 FAQ How are these different from regular metallic paint?Standard metallics need a basecoat, a wash, and a highlight. These do all three in one coat — the pigment settles dark in recesses and bright on edges. What primer works best?Black or dark grey primer makes the metals read deepest; light primer gives brighter, newer-looking metal. Can I mix them with regular Speedpaints?Yes — same 2.0 formula, and a drop of color into a metallic makes tinted metals (great for aged brass and rusted steel).
