Green stuff world have put out these comparison charts, isn’t there somewhere on Dakka that these things are stored?

I haven’t tried any of these inks so can’t comment on how well they compare but the inks are much bigger bottles than contrast paint so value for money wise, if they do compare, they are worth it I’d say.

Thanks.

Heh, that looks a little too dark for goth skin if you ask me!

The ever-useful Dakka paint compatibility chart!

I assume its OG outdoor burly Goth of Roman invasion fame, rather than modern Goths, who would be a bit more Skull Linen in tone

I see there’s no column for green stuff world on the chart, hopefully this changes things. They are a company that’s going from strength to strength, I love their paints but and people must be buying them for their range to continue expanding.

I do suspect that they sell more in non English speaking countries which might be why many people still don’t consider them along side the other paint brands. 2 thin coats is on the chart and they’ve only been around a couple of years

Also useful is Stahly's reviews of the various products, as he has good reference photos:

regarding updating the table, Darksoldier did the edit to add two Thin coats. If you want to add GSW, then maybe drop a thread in the Nuts and Bolts forum.
