Is it just a black wash on the bare metal or something else?
Thanks!
Those were either stripped(that's how all my stripped models looked after cleaning them), it's a by product of the picture, or it's something to do with the type/ratio of metals used.

The metal models are lightly washed with a black wash/ink.
They did that with all the old models in the GW catalogues. Just adds definition.
Also adding a touch of Future Floor Finish to your ink helps to break the surface tension and get ink flowing smoother.
Washes straight out of the pot might be a bit too strong, add a little water.

Those models on the left and right look pretty rad too, though. I wouldn't mind knowing what/who they are! The model on the left would make an interesting Vindicare assassin.
Just because anyone agrees with anyone, doesn't mean they are correct. Beware the thin line between what is "Correct" and what is "Popular."
