Everything You Need to Start Painting Your Army
The first models are built. They're primed and waiting on the desk. Now comes the part that transforms bare plastic into a war-ready force — and this set puts all the essentials in one box. The Warhammer 40,000 Paints & Tools Set from Citadel brings together a hand-picked selection of paints, a brush, and the key tools a new hobbyist needs to get started, without the guesswork of building a kit list from scratch.
What's in the Set
This set includes a curated range of Citadel paints covering the core steps of the miniature painting workflow — base colours for solid coverage, a shade to add depth and shadow to recesses, and a layer paint for highlighting. A starter brush and essential hobby tools round out the contents, giving you everything needed to move from sprue to painted model. It's designed to complement introductory Warhammer 40,000 kits and starter sets, making it a natural first purchase alongside a Combat Patrol or beginner box.
Who This Is For
New hobbyists picking up their first Warhammer 40,000 models will get the most out of this set — it removes the intimidation of building a paint collection one pot at a time and ensures every stage of a basic paint job is covered. It also makes an excellent gift for anyone just entering the hobby, particularly when paired with a starter set or push-fit model kit. Experienced painters already have a full rack of Citadel paints, but for anyone asking where do I even begin, this is the answer.
