The Army Painter Speedpaint 2.0: Lizardfolk Cyan

One Coat. Real Results.

Speedpaint 2.0 from The Army Painter is built for painters who want strong, game-ready results without spending hours on each model. Lizardfolk Cyan is a rich, cool-toned turquoise that flows into recesses, shades itself, and leaves raised surfaces brighter — all in a single pass. The result is a convincing, layered look that would take multiple steps with traditional paints. Let it cure fully before applying a second coat or varnish, and you'll have tabletop-quality miniatures faster than any other method.

How Speedpaint 2.0 Works

Speedpaint 2.0 is The Army Painter's second-generation formula, addressing the reactivation issues some painters encountered with the original line. The improved formula is more stable under subsequent coats, making it far more practical for painters who want to add highlights or details on top. Apply it over a white or light grey primer for the brightest result, or over a coloured primer to shift the tone. It works on plastic, resin, and metal miniatures alike — no game system required. This is a hobby supply that earns its spot on any painter's desk.

Who This Is For

Lizardfolk Cyan is an obvious pick for reptilian creatures, aquatic forces, or any warband where teal and turquoise feature prominently — but it reads equally well on OSL effects, arcane energy, gemstones, and power weapons. New painters will appreciate how much work a single pot does. Experienced painters keep Speedpaints in rotation for batch-painting rank-and-file models before shifting to traditional techniques for character pieces and centrepieces. One pot goes a long way.
