Product Information

In recent years, architect lamps have joined other light sources in prioritizing energy efficiency. This is closely linked to the type of lightbulbs they use, and LED tends to be the most popular. Look for the number of burn hours a lightbulb promises, as well as its eco-friendliness. The best light for painting miniatures will be light in the color range of about 5000. This produces a good natural white light that will reflect how the miniature will look in normal daylight. A CRI of 80 is normal, but not really that great. You need to get up in the 95+ range for this to be fun. 2. The light needs to decrease the amount of shadow on your miniature Without good light you can’t see anything, properly. When it comes to focusing on what’s important, placing emphasis on good light is the key to enjoying whatever activity you’re doing. As useful as it may be to be able to adjust your lamp, if it continues to move around after you’ve positioned it, it will become a huge distraction. Your lamp should have the flexibility to be movable while also holding its position once you’ve put it in place.

When painting miniatures with poor light, it will distort the colours of your miniatures. This is because it either casts a too-blue light or too-yellow tone from the bulb, giving everything a tinge of that colour. It will also have a bad CRI, meaning that it will not accurately reflect the actual colours and tones of the paint you are working with. At one time, architects spent hours at a drafting table, drawing up blueprints on projects. Technology moved that work to computer software, but the usefulness of architect lamps ensured they remained relevant. Today, architect lamps can be found on desks and other workspaces, providing easy-to-control lighting for a variety of functions.

Although all architect lamps are more flexible than standard lamps, some feature more swivel than others. Look for one with a wide range on the head, as well as adjustability in the arm. If you go with LED you will get all that and you will also not have bulbs that produce heat (not great when you want to thin that paint!). Thank the maker for LED light.

I can already tell that the Neatfi light will last me years and years from its mostly metal construction. The LEDs are rated for up to 100,000 hours of use, and will never get hot. The 3-yr warranty is a nice touch but I doubt will be needed. While I find the R9 amazing and the best miniature painting desk lamp, it might not be for everyone. If you are looking for something even more affordable than our budget option way more mobile, the Uberlight Flex might be the one for you. The lighting itself is important. Look for the number of lumens the lamp emits to see how much lighting you’ll get.

Lamp for miniature painting Neafti XL: conclusions

The most notable feature of an architect lamp is its adjustability. It has both a head and arm that swivels, letting you control not only the height but also the direction of the light. They have a lampshade that helps control the direction of the light, and the shade can vary in size. With some architect lamps, the shade is wider, while others keep it more in a circular design.

With 117 LEDs and 2200 lumens and, as already said, it has a color temperature of 5600-6000K with a CRI 80. As a lamp for painting miniatures it is fantastic! Until now I had used more light points (the neon, the Ikea lamp, the lamp above the shelf). This inevitably generated different and uneven lights, although I tried to use the same colors, the result was never optimal. The Neatfi desk lamp, on the other hand, has solved this problem because with a single large light point, it allows me to illuminate the entire desk in a homogeneous way. You’ll find that although architect lamps are simple in design, you have a wide range of options in how they look. You can find some with solid finishes and others in brass or silver. You should be able to find the lamp that matches the room in which it will be used. Today’s architect lamps often attach to your desk or table using a clamp rather than having a base they set on. This keeps your workspace clear for you to spread your work out, while also giving you the freedom to place it where you want it. This clamp is typically the same color as the rest of the lamp to make sure it better blends with the surrounding décor.

Because of the LED lights technology, the lamp produces no heat and no weird buzzing sound (my last lamp drove me insane). Also, you will likely stop painting before any of the LED lights break. Well designed R9! 5. Flexible setup and well designed I want to cut right to the chase, I think the Redgrass R9 Desk Lamp is the best lamp for miniatures you can get right now for miniature painting. A few things make this outstanding: 1. It produces bright natural light over a broad area and the light is very flexible Ever find yourself fiddling around with the models, trying to get the spot you are painting into the perfect light? This is because the position of your lamp and your hands are causing shadows to fall on your miniature.

Cord length comes into play. Measure from the power outlet to the desk or table to find a lamp with a cord length that will easily reach. Consider where the power switch is on the lamp you choose. One with a light switch that’s easy to access will keep you from having to fumble around for it after putting in hours of work.
