Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the products, especially the primer and spray paints, for their excellent quality, smooth finish, and great coverage, often noting they are superior to other brands. Many appreciate the value for money, particularly the larger can sizes and competitive pricing. The ordering process is frequently described as easy and efficient, with consumers highlighting the fast dispatch and next-day delivery services. However, some customers also noted issues with delivery, specifically mentioning that DPD, one of the delivery companies used, did not always deliver on time and that packages sometimes arrived damaged. A few people were dissatisfied with a specific white primer, reporting that it resulted in an "orange peel" texture and watery coverage, ruining their models.

Spray paint

The spray paint can sizes are excellent, they have some great 1:1 colours compared to paints made by citadel.
Recently I ordered a can of tempest blue. The can lid came cracked and there was some discharge from the spray. I emailed customer support and they sent a replacement can which came within a day and was perfectly fine. 10/10

Nice bristle shame about the sizePositive view of the product as…

Positive view of the product as synthetic bristle. Nice snap and holds paint well. Smooth application. However I feel that the set is exceptionally small The CF 2 being similar size and shape (belly) to both my 8404 & Red Dot '0'. I now have three nice detail brushes but nothing for base coat or layers. I won't buy a set again. Individually perhaps.

Rogue pink signature series

I ordered two cans of Rogue Pink midday Wednesday and had them delivered by Thursday afternoon. The colour was roughly matched to Citadels Emperor's Children but it will still provide an excellent base colour for the paint. I would definitely recommend their colours for coverage and colour match for a base/primer layer.
