Formula P3 Paints

Developed and used by the leading professionals in the hobby miniatures industry, Formula P3 paints, brushes, and hobby tools bring your miniatures to life.

Privateer Press spent years designing the Formula P3 paint line. Here are a few reasons why it is the best miniature paint on the market.

Key colours come in base and highlight shades to make their application intuitive.

With an extended drying time, you can blend and mix paints without fear of wasting your paint or employing retardants or flow extenders.

The formula dries to a hard and satin finish resistant to chipping. You won’t fear handling your finished miniatures.

Unlike other paints, Formula P3 uses liquid pigments. It never separates when thinned and retains brightness after thinning and drying. 

Formula P3 often covers in a single coat – even over a black undercoat.
