Monument Hobbies Expert Artist Acrylics Series 2 paints are here, featuring six new colors with rich pigment, a matte finish, and creamy coverage, perfect for miniature painters.
Monument Hobbies is back with another batch of PRO Acryl Expert Acrylics, and for painters who like rich pigment, smooth coverage, and a little more body in their paint, this next drop is a winner. Expert Artist Acrylics Series 2 just dropped, bringing six fresh colors to the lineup for tackling everything from display pieces to minis.
And, if that’s not enough, they’re also dropping three new texture trainers to paint up with your artist paints!
Why PRO Acryl Expert Artist Acrylics Stand Out
Updated on April 14 2026, by Rob Baer with new product info. All prices accurate as of this edit. Every qualifying purchase helps Spikey Bits keep the lights on and the fun going.
The big selling point for PRO Acryl Expert Artist Acrylics is still the texture. These are the thicker, creamier cousins to Monument’s fluid hobby paints, landing right in that sweet spot between soft body and heavy body acrylics. You get serious pigment density without having to wrestle the paint every time you’re working on fine details.
The new paints are formulated for miniature painting, model painting, and other 3D surfaces, so they apply smoothly while still delivering vibrant color. The matte finish is another big win, especially if you want your blends, textures, and highlights to stay crisp rather than get buried under unwanted shine.
Best Uses for Miniature Painters
This line is great for painters who like options. You can use the paint straight from the tube for strong coverage, or thin it down with mediums for smoother glazes and filters. So, that makes these artist acrylics a smart pickup whether you’re blocking in armor panels, layering cloth, or working subtle transitions on character models.
Another nice touch is that each tube includes printed pigment codes, which is a real bonus for hobbyists who like mixing with intention instead of just winging it and hoping for the best.

The new Monument Hobbies Expert Artist Acrylics Series 2 wave includes six new colors:
- Chrome Oxide Green
- Alizarin Crimson Hue
- Arylide Yellow Deep
- Quinacridone Magenta
- Phthalo Turquoise Light
- Red Oxide Tint
That mix covers a lot of ground, with bold primaries, earthy utility tones, and some high-impact colors that should really shine in glazing, filtering, and accent work. This kind of range can be a real game-changer because a strong turquoise or magenta can do a lot of heavy lifting when you want a model to pop without tipping into cartoon territory
Three New Texture Trainers: $40 Each
Monument Hobbies also has three new Texture Trainer Frameables available, which are a fun change of pace for painters who want something a little different from the usual miniature project.
- Texture Trainer Frameable #4 – Whiplash Willy
- Texture Trainer Frameable #5 – Rufus
- Texture Trainer Frameable #6 – Sidewinder Slim
Texture Trainer Frameables are hand-poured resin characters designed to be painted and proudly displayed in a 4”x6” frame. You can prime and paint them like normal, or just pop them into a frame as-is for a hobby-themed piece of décor. It’s a pretty cool way to turn miniature painting into something that lives on your desk, hangs on the wall, or becomes a gift for friends and family.
Final Thoughts from Us on Exper Artist Acrylics Series 2: Don’t Sleep On Them
Monument keeps doing the thing they’re best at: making paint that feels like it was designed by someone who actually paints minis. The Expert Artist Acrylics Series 2 Series two isn’t just “more colors,” it’s a tight set of high-value hues that cover the flashy stuff (that turquoise and magenta are going to earn their keep) and the workhorse tones you’ll reach for constantly.
If you grabbed wave one and liked how it handled, this is an easy follow-up. If you skipped it, Series two is a solid starting point because the range lets you block in, glaze, filter, and punch highlights without hunting for weird mixes every five minutes. And the Texture Trainer Frameables are a smart side-quest for testing blends and brush control without committing to a full army project.
Bottom line: if you want stronger pigment, smoother transitions, and more control on the brush, these are worth a spot on the bench.
