http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net GW has ever done. The washes gave me that "milked" look that I had tried for years now to perfect but have been unable to. With the stroke of a brush the washes make the models look simply amazing. I cannot believe that they are only 20 bux. I would HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone that wants amazing looking models with minimal effort.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/316826.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/316826.page GMT HW is really supposed to be a GW?

I think they're great, now even an new/unskilled painter can really add a lot more depth to their models instead of just doing plain ole solid colors. And for the better painters out there they'll help ya get your stuff done a lot quicker with the same results you might have had for doing it all yourself with blending and layering and stuff.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/316915.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/316915.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/316981.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/316981.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/316995.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/316995.page GMT

As for a comparison with other "wash" products, I have used Wonder Wash, and the GW washes are a bit thicker. Very rich color. Get them all, you never know when you'll want the odd colors that don't match your army, and the $20 tag is pretty fair. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/317797.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/317797.page GMT [img]http://www.kan.org/michael/mkp/images/wash_front_05.jpg[/img]

That is awesome ! I'm gonna buy these washes ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/317944.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/317944.page GMT
I used the old inks for giving depth to metals and the new washes are no good or require more coats for this purpose. They are too thin for this kind of usage.

So they are not going to replace the inks in my use, but complement them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/317995.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/317995.page GMT
I found that if you do standard washing and juices first to get the grimy/dirty/rusty look, then use the citadel washes to finish it they work awesome.

I would recommend the washes as a finishing move for you painters out there who are lazy ............ like me .......

You don't think I'm lazy? the latest Iron Giants I painted I mixed up hospital specimen jars with cheapass paint, water and detergent and then dipped the models in there instead of brushing it on. After about 10 goes each with that, I then did the rest of the work and then finalised the models with the washes.

Lazy.

But bloody effective.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318023.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318023.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318101.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318101.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318129.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318129.page GMT ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318556.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318556.page GMT ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318557.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318557.page GMT
The washes have a very good consistency. I am surprised at how much I use the Devlan Mud (leather and bronze) and Ogryn Flesh. The time saved by not needing to thin inks or mix your own wash is well worth the $20 box and/or $3 apiece.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318882.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/318882.page GMT

I really like that they´re coming out non glossy, since that allows me to do easy shading of dark grey.

Also, in general i´ve been happy with their consistency.

Not too runny, just enough.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/319548.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/213490/319548.page GMT
I was never a fan of the old inks/washes, because of the tide marks they would leave when used on a large area, and the shine they left on the finish. The new washes are much better for shading, and they have a nice consistency which is easy to get to stay where you want it.

I do like my old brown ink, however, and should probably stock up on it before it goes away. The old inks are definitely more concentrated, but I see this as a good think, as the new washes are good for layering effects.

The best thing about the new washes is definitely the matte finish. Well done, GW.
