Four guides we point every beginner to first — which paints to buy, how to use them, and how to learn the games we stock.
Who makes it
Relicblade comes from Sean Sutter at Metal King Studio. We stock it because he makes games we want to play — here's how it works, in 10 minutes.
If you've been painting with Citadel or Vallejo metallics and found them flat, Turbo Dork's range will change your expectations. These are rich, sparkling metal tones with genuine visual depth.
They contain fine mica flakes that catch light naturally, and the coverage is consistent across the range. They work equally well by hand brush or airbrush, and they're scratch-resistant enough to survive regular game play, as well as looking striking enough for the display shelf.
If you need the classics, the True Metallics bundle gives you gold, silver, copper, and bronze in one box. If you want something more unusual, like deep rose gold, icy silver, or an awesome orange, browse the full range and look for the colour family filters.
Metallics shine brightest over a smooth, even base coat. Black is usually the primer of choice, but a Two Thin Coats base layer in a complementary colour can give you some beautiful hues. For edge highlighting over metallics, a fine detail brush like a Tesseract Mini Studios Workhorse or The Lil Guy makes the difference.
