Reaper Master Series Paints

Post by Nameless »

As our shop will probably offer MSP soon, I'd like to ask for your opinion on those paints. Has anyone used them?

Are these the ones in the jars with screw-off lids that are flat on top? Or are these the ones in the dropper bottles? (Can't ever keep them straight.)

Dropper bottles. Ones in jars are called Pro Paints - and you can describe them too, if you'd be that kind :)

I have a small selection of the ones in dropper bottles. (Got them at Gen Con last year.) I don't use them all the time just because of the colors I bought, but when I do use them I like them very much. They are very similar to the Vallejo paints I use, but come out less chalky from what I can tell. Some of the colors are great, too. I really enjoy that they made the colors with shading and highlighting in mind. (Meaning, basically they designed the colors to work in threes.)

Also, from what I understand, some of the colors are supposed to be ones that some of the top painters love and are really known for but have been mixing for themselves for years. (I remember hearing there was some color of Jen Haley's and some color of Anne Foerster's pallete, for instance.)

The price is good, the quality seems consistently good, and I like what few I have used.

We have the whole set of Reaper MSPs, they are terrific! I won't use any other acrylic paint after trying them.
