PRO Acryl Base Set vs PRO Acryl Expansion Set #1
Buy the Base Set first. Its 24 colors cover whites, blacks, primaries, greys, browns and flesh tones, so you can paint a model start to finish. The Expansion Set #1 adds 12 darker, muted and flesh-adjacent shades that fill gaps rather than replace the core. Both use the same 22ml dropper bottles, glass agitators and no-clog caps, and both rate 5 out of 5 from owners. The Expansion Set is the step up once the base palette feels limiting, not a starting point.
- Choose the PRO Acryl Base Set if you are starting out or want one box that covers full models, from white and black through reds, blues, greens, greys and flesh.
- Choose the PRO Acryl Expansion Set #1 if you already own the base colors and want darker purples, blues, camo greens, ochres and flesh shades to deepen your palette.
