Adam WIlder is about to extend his range of products with oil paints. These oils are specifically designed for weathering.
There will be 20 different colours covering the most usual shades we need for Armour modelling.

According to the label they have two distinct features:
  • A matt finish, so they do not need to be put on a cardboard to absorb excess of oils as the artists paints.
  • Fast drying, also an advantage not to wait one or two days to continue without affecting the previous work

They look like an excellent replacement for traditional oil paints, looking forward to test them.

If the price is right, I might be interested. I like the fast-drying part.

Definately looks interesting, will wait to see a review on the use before venturing in.

I would buy these if they put them in proper acrylic style bottles. Those tubes are pain in the ass to use.

Looks like a great new product and addresses ideas specific to our tasks. However, you'll always need to make a palette with any type of paste-style product, so it is hardly an inconvenience and par for the course. It should also be noted that the drying time for regular oils (if you use them on the cardboard palette to absorb out the linseed oil) is much less, as short as a few minutes when used in conjunction with a hair dryer to speed things up. I won't hesitate to get some of these and put them to task! Can't wait to try them out.

One of the things I've taken to doing with tubes of whatever material is to buy a bunch of toothpaste squeezers and push them up the tube as I use them; that prevents getting the tube crumpled and trapping part of the contents, and also makes it easier to squeeze out dollops for whatever purpose -- crushed garlic, silicone caulk, toothpaste, adhesives, paint...
