I'm quite interested in AK's paints but have never used them.

On the other hand i need another set of paint s like I need a whole in my head- there simply wouldn't be any room left ion my studio to paint!  lol

There’s a data sheet here. I like the spot on the lid for the paint sample, but the other innovations don’t get much of a description beyond “they’re awesome!”...

I'm already in that position, and I don't even have a studio. I'll buy the new ones, though. Wonder if they'll be out before the Nocturna N-Paint K S parcel arrives?

I've been using paints from the AK Figure line for a while now. They produce a nice matte finish and I like them a lot. I'll probably check out their new range if my lgs gets it in stock.

Would certainly be worth looking at.

I’ve got a few AK Interactive paints bought from Great Escape Games. Been using them for a couple of years. Nice strong colours, extensive range, good consistency and opacity (on the whole), and a reliably flat matt finish. I didn’t think they’d been about very long TBH, so don’t know if this is literally a new range, or just a relaunch of the existing line.

From the promo film and dossier it definitely appears to be a new range. If not, it's one of the most egregiously OTT campaigns I can recall.

The following video appears to address most questions raised about this range (which I can confirm is definitely a new product):
