2 questions-

1. Does anyone have a link to the new conversions list of the paints GW has out now?

2. What is Lahmian Medium? is that the old floor wax mix with water trick?



Thanks in advance

At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money.

Words can't describe it. But thanks for your help.


So tell me about this Medium stuff? Is it the floor wax trick, or something else, oh great and clueless.

found this thread on Lahmian Medium, it may be helpful to you:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/478122.page

looks like it's a glaze medium. I've never used the stuff before. I'm fairly new to the hobby.
I've been painting terribly for a few months now and now just starting to airbrush terribly.
I've learned that purple power is my friend.

This does a good job explaining mediums:

I imagine GW's medium is a "thinning" medium.

From GW's website:
"Lahmian Medium is a colourless medium which can be mixed with a Layer paint to create glazes to apply to your models..."

Either way, Liquitex makes alot of the same stuff in more cost effective bottles.

lahmian medium is basically the acrylic "stuff" without any color..so yes, it's intended for making glazes, making thinner layers, paint mixing, etc.

I do not work for GW in any fashion. When I edit my post, either I've misspelled something, punctuation, or I'm fixing swearing. Oops.
