A New Line Of Miniature Paints Is Being Born

Background:
I have been in the paint business for the last 12 years (a trained chemist) and over that time I got to find out all the secrets of the trade.
I am also p*s*d off having to pay 2-3 pounds for 12ml of paint for painting my minis.

Idea:
Since the know-how is there, I have been testing some recipes and crunching some numbers and I am at the pleasant position to believe that I can make and sell high quality wargame paints for one (yes 1) pound a pot.

Suggestion:
There has been a lot of work done with the line of paints.
I am really satisfied with the quality and the brightness of the paints and also the color range.

Now the next step is to make the line available for testing by you guys!!!
I am thinking of making sets of 10 paint pots (2-3 color grades and washes) available for 10 GBP including shipping to all over the world.

Would you be interested in giving feedback and reviewing the paints?

As a reward, you will get to name the paints!!!!


UPDATE 05-April-2015:

ok guys the first batch is ready:

what do you think?

Features of the paint:
non-toxic
highest quality pigments
hybrid acrylic paint (water-based)
can be thinned with tap water (soft)
perfect color consistency
colors do not separate (no shaking required)
child-proof screw top
dropper bottles minimise contamination and drying out
mixable with other brands (GW confirmed, info on others to follow soon)



UPDATE 12-April-2015:


All Beta Testing sets are out of stock now.
We will be reviewing the feedback received from the end-users and making any necessary twitches to the formulation of the paints.

Once that is finished we will be able to offer you the actual colour sets at the promised prices!!!!







UPDATE 06-06-2015:

Thank you Oistene, mrwizzard96, and boubi for your support.
I am sure you will love the paints!

I will keep you all posted. I guess I need around 2 more weeks to be able to ship.

I am a bit of a paint and primer freak, I have painted with Vallejo, Vallejo Game Color, Reaper Master, Reaper Pro, Reaper HD, multiple Generations of GW/Citadel, Rackham, P3, Scale75, Derivan Minis, Golden, Liquitex, Windsor and Newton, Foundry, Army Painter, Delta and FolkArt craft paints, Tamiya, mr Hobby, Testors, and others I'm sure I can't even remember. :)

In other words- "New paint? Sure, I'll try it!".

I'm in. Buying new paints and brushes is like golfer buying a new putter. I know what I really need is more practice but buying cool new paints is fun!

It sounds very interesting, and if there's room for more testers I would definitely like to try them out and review them. Either way I'll definitely pick some up when available, at that price point I doubt I would be able to resist :).
 
I can think of few activities more attractive than the opportunity to play with a new paint range without the self-imposed pressure of trying to produce a presentable miniature. If this meets your criteria, I'm happy to oblige.
