Is it just a black wash on the bare metal or something else?

Thanks!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/433922.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/433922.page GMT unpainted display effect - HOW?!?!

Those were either stripped(that's how all my stripped models looked after cleaning them), it's a by product of the picture, or it's something to do with the type/ratio of metals used.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/433929.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/433929.page GMT unpainted display effect - HOW?!?!
The metal models are lightly washed with a black wash/ink.

They did that with all the old models in the GW catalogues. Just adds definition.

Also adding a touch of Future Floor Finish to your ink helps to break the surface tension and get ink flowing smoother.

Washes straight out of the pot might be a bit too strong, add a little water.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/433934.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/433934.page GMT unpainted display effect - HOW?!?! http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/433974.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/433974.page GMT unpainted display effect - HOW?!?! http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/434056.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/434056.page GMT unpainted display effect - HOW?!?!

The unpainted effect is done by a light wash with black ink.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/434361.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221888/434361.page GMT unpainted display effect - HOW?!?!
