One Coat. Tabletop Ready.
Shamrock Green is a vibrant, mid-tone green Speedpaint from The Army Painter's 2.0 formula — and if you've been looking for a way to get models off the sprue and onto the table faster, this is where that journey starts. Speedpaint 2.0 combines base coating and shading into a single application: brush it over a white or light grey primer, and the paint naturally flows into recesses to create depth and shadow while leaving raised surfaces brighter. The result is a convincing, game-ready finish in a fraction of the time traditional layering demands.
The 2.0 formula improves on the original Speedpaint line with reduced reactivation — meaning you can layer or highlight over a dried coat without the paint beneath lifting or muddying. Shamrock Green lands in that satisfying range of lush, saturated greens that suits a wide range of models: Ork skin, forest-themed warbands, natural armour, cloaks, foliage-covered basing details, and any faction that calls for earthy, organic tones. It's equally at home on a batch of twenty infantry as it is as a starting point on a single display piece.
Built for Speed, Ready for More
New painters will find Speedpaint 2.0 one of the most forgiving ways to develop confidence with a brush. The self-shading formula does a lot of the visual work automatically, and the results look deliberate even when they've taken only minutes per model. Experienced painters use Speedpaints as a speed-painting foundation — getting armies game-ready fast — before returning with layer paints and highlights on focal points. Shamrock Green pairs naturally with lighter greens for edge highlights and darker shades for deeper shadow, making it a flexible addition to any palette rather than a one-trick shortcut.
