I don't actually have experience with P3. It is well considered by many other painters. They tout that they use liquid pigment, which makes it harder for their paint to break, but I have no idea how effective this is. P3 does come in paint pots, which I personally do not like. I would probably be more inclined to try them if they came in dropper bottles.
## Pro-Acryl
* Pigment Density: High
* Container: 22ml Dropper
* Cost per ml: $0.18/ml ($4.00 per dropper bottle)
* Personal level of experience: High
* Purchase starting place: [Pro-Acryl Base Set](https://monumenthobbies.com/products/pro-acryl-base-set) (24 paints)
* Finish: Matte/Satin
Pro-Acryl has become one of my go-tos. Their white is just top notch, but I also regularly use the white, greys and black to clean up my zenithal primes from overpaint as I put colors over my zenithal prime. All the pro-acryl paints have top tier coverage for comparable colors. They wet blend well, they turn into glazes super-well - very very hard to break because of the very high pigment density. A great range of browns, and desaturated colors as well as probably my favorite turquoise in any line. Pro acryl also has a good line of metallics and some really interesting transparent paints that are great for glazing.
