One Pass. Full Coverage. Sixty Colours Ready to Go.
There's a particular satisfaction in watching colour flow across a freshly primed miniature and settle into every recess on its own — no prodding, no second-guessing wash consistency. The Army Painter Speed Paint 2.0 Markers bring that logic into a format that requires almost no setup: uncap the chisel-tipped marker, apply colour directly to bare plastic, resin, or metal, and watch the self-shading formula do the rest. The Mega Set collects 60 markers in a single purchase, spanning a full working palette of skin tones, armour colours, cloth, leather, wood, and metallic effects — enough range to take an entire army from primed grey to table-ready without reaching for anything else.
The 2.0 Formula
Speed Paint 2.0 is an ink-heavy, self-shading medium that pools into recesses and leaves raised surfaces naturally lighter — producing a shaded, ready-to-detail result in a single application pass. Crucially, the 2.0 formula addresses the reactivation problem that affected the original Speed Paint range: dried layers stay stable when additional coats are applied over the top, making highlights, layering, and corrections significantly more reliable. The chisel tip handles both broad coverage on armour plates and cloaks, and tighter controlled application on smaller detail areas when held at an angle. No palette, no water pot, no brush loading between colours — the colour goes directly from marker to model.
Who This Is For
Painters working through large batches of models will find the marker format genuinely practical. New hobbyists get one of the lowest barriers to entry in the entire hobby — the only skill required is applying colour inside the lines. Experienced painters building an army against a deadline can move through squads quickly without sacrificing the depth and contrast the formula naturally produces. The Mega Set is also one of the stronger gift options in the miniature hobby: 60 colours in one box covers nearly any project, and a friend or family member buying for a hobbyist doesn't need to cross-reference an existing paint collection to make a genuinely useful purchase.
