I'm building a Cities of Death board using several Pegasus terrain sets and I plan on having the buildings be a light tan stone. To achevieve some depth and texture I want to use brown washes for the buildings. Similarly I have several tanks and super heavies I'd like to wash with something like Badab black. Rather than use 100x pots of Devlan Mud or Badab Black I was hoping that someone might have an alternative for these washes to use on larger projects and how best to apply them?

Just make ur own with cheap brown / black acrylics and water to dilute them .

If you're going to need a lot, you could try this recipe (or buy his washes as they are cheaper than GWs).

I use Liquitex Soft Acrylics for a lot of my full figure/vehicle washes/

Can you get the Liquitex Soft Acrylics at Michaels?

EDIT: looks like you can. On a side note, do you just use them straight out of the pot or water them down?
