In this Video we are exploring the Power of Limited Color Palettes and how they will instantly make your miniature painting look more accomplished. We're exploring ways to create your own palettes and how to work with prebuilt themed sets like the John Blanche Masterclass Sets Volume 3 and 4 by The Army Painter.
Using a limited color palette is one of the most powerful — and most overlooked — skills in miniature painting. In this video, I show why fewer paints often lead to better miniatures, stronger color harmony, and faster improvement than buying more tools, gadgets, or premixed colors.
After more than 25 years of miniature painting, working with limited palettes had the biggest impact on my results. It forces deliberate color choices, improves color mixing, and teaches you how saturation, value, and temperature actually work — instead of relying on hundreds of paints to do the thinking for you.
In this tutorial and painting challenge, I use the John Blanche Masterclass Volume 3 set from Army Painter to paint a miniature using an extremely restricted gamut. We’ll talk about:
Why using fewer colors creates more harmonious miniatures
How gamut mapping works, how to use it for mini painting and how Analogous, triadic, and limited color schemes fit into this
How mixing colors affects saturation
Using “subjective neutrals” instead of black for shading
Why limited palettes improve brush control, confidence, and consistency
This video is part miniature painting tutorial, part color theory deep dive, and part self-inflicted challenge, showing that even very narrow color schemes can produce expressive, striking results.
Whether you paint Warhammer 40k, Age of Sigmar, tabletop miniatures, display models, or busts, learning to work with limited palettes will make your paint jobs look more intentional, more readable, and more professional.
If you’re looking to improve your miniature painting without buying more paints — this is where to start.
