I am coming back to the hobby after more then 10 years rest and...got a bit confused with the current GW paints range. What has happened with the old names and colours? i mean colours do not worry me so much as the range seems to be bigger and more 'colourful'. My issue is that as I used to I am willing to paint real metallic, rusty, worn etc. I used to use a lot of washes and inks. What I see is that they have replaced the inks with glazes right?

Also I was browsing though the tutorials and have found some interesting paints and inks but then when I wanted to look for most of them they names do not exist in the current range. Can someone give my any tips on equivalent paints in the current GW range? Or if there is none in the GW range point me towards Vallejo or Armypainter or such?

1. Badab Black
2. Delvan Mud
3. Chainmail Metal
4. Baal Red
5. Gryphone Sepia
6. Ogryn Flesh
7. Sepia Gold
8. Boltgun Metal
9. Bestial Brown
10. Snakebite Leather

Is there a comparison/chart of colours available anywhere? If anyone knows such I would be grateful

Thank you Ghaz for that chart!
Is there one regarding inks/glazes/washes? That would be most appreciated

The washes are all.in there I think. Badab black, devlan mud, gryphonne sepia.for.example.
