well I bet you guys know what i am going to say....LOL Kryolan 080. Been using it for spidey for over 25 years.... never let me down yet! Yes more expensive innitially than snaz.... but lasts 3 times as long....so cheaper in the long run....and red is always needed as a colour....so in use on every job.


Lol I knew it Glyn!

am pretty impressed by SuperStar Poppie - I too was disappointed with Cherry bomb, and am moving away from snaz as I'm not keen on the texture :)

Love them all!
Cherry Bomb is lovely metallic.
Tag Red is a good metallic red too
Kryolan that Glyn mentioned is excellent too
Snaz red - excellent as well.

For line work - nothing beats a good Wolfe/DFX/Cameleon!

Yeah.... bet you hadn't heard of that yet! Cameleon is the newest stuff around stunning strong pigments and their own line of one-strokes too - designed by Lymari - who has the most beautiful baby - fathered by Alex Hansen! You should have seen her!

Do you know what it is like to work with? Is it similar to DFX or soft like paradise? Is the white strong for line work like Wolfe?

I've just bought some Superstar paints to try and red was one of them, but was so confused though as there's 3 red colours - Poppy, Poppy Red and Ronnie Red Laughingoutloud Laughingoutloud Laughingoutloud Laughingoutloud I went for Ronnie Red.

Fits very nicely into my paradise holder.

More similar to DFX I suppose, but they have brought out an excellent idea - two blacks! One called Black Velvet which is good for bases and the other is Strong Black - great for linework! All properly FDA approved.

I was so excited when my little parcel of new paints arrived on Sat. Amongst then I brought a paradise red. The quality and depth of colour is fantastic, but I'm so disappointed at the shade, it's more of a burgundy. Can anyone recommend a 'bright post box' red?


I have noticed that my latest ones are very dark, almost brown!
