"Contrast" Style Paints
Army Painter
Army Painter - SpeedPaints Starter Set

Messy
Needs care to apply accurately

Slow drying
While this gives you time to play with the colours, it does mean you have to leave longer for it to dry (especially if it is in a deep recess)
-
Different style to oils or acrylics
The translucent properties of Speedpaints are more like watercolours. Which if applied carefully can look awesome
-
Translucent
You can play with the colours to have various tones showing through the paintwork

Vallejo
Vallejo Xpress Color
-
The bottles are made out of thin plastic
Feels a bit flimsy
-
Vibrant colours
These paint are bright and vibrant straight out of the bottle.
-
Vallejo's "one coat solution"
These paints are formulated to create highlights, mid tones and shadows with just one coat of paint
-
Behaves like a normal acrylic paint
Unlike the Army Painter Speedpaint range which (to me at least) behaves like water colours, these paints behave like acrylic paint
