With the vast collection of 1500 (!!) paints that I have selected, there are so many shades and brands we can talk about - so how did I get a perfect match for the swatches in the Deck of Many Colors?
The truth is I didn’t always find the exact right colour, and you might not in your paint selection either. So it’s important to know what to prioritise for the swatch, like warmth over highlight, for example. You can get pretty darn close if you work through!
The paints featured in the decks are:
TAP - The Army Painter Fanatic
PRO - Monument Pro Acryl
P3 - Privateer Press P3
AK - AK Interactive 3rd Gen
TTC - Two Thin Coats
To preorder The Deck of Many Colors please click the link in the comments! Here, I'm using a card with artwork designed by Martin McCoy and you'll also find a full artists' catalogue on the website (as well as their name printed on every physical card).
