Subject: Any equivalents to GW's Red Ink in the US?
I'm looking for something equivalent to the older Games Workshop Red Ink that was discontinued not too long ago. Any good ideas? Or anyone know any place in the US that still have it?
Thanks.

Coat D'Arms paint is the exact same stuff as GW paint. Google them and see what you can find. If I recall GW actually licensed most of their paints for GW color.

The problem with Coat D'Arms is that their batches are hand mixed, and thus had continuity issues of shade variance across different batches of the same colors.
I haven't tried the reaper ones, but worth a shot. Or use the Les Bursley recipe. Send me the Daler Rowney ink of your choice and I'll make you a wash out of it.

Oh wow I still use my old red ink all the time. I didn't realize it was discontinued. Is the new red wash from GW vastly different? If so I'll have to get my ink from the war store when I run out.
