Five Ranges, Brand by Brand
The full Citadel range sits beside the full current Games Workshop model line, so a Tomball painter can match an official scheme pot for pot and carry the kit out in the same bag.
Vallejo covers the color depth detail painters chase and the airbrush-ready formulas that keep thin coats thin.
One-coat coverage across whole squads. When an army needs to be tabletop-ready by the weekend, Speedpaint is the wall’s fastest answer.
AK Interactive handles weathering, grime, and rust. Pro Acryl handles the centerpiece model that deserves extra hours. Two Thin Coats wave 1 rounds out the wall.
