Has anyone tried GWs new Contrast paints?

Yeah, they look decent! And for virtually zero time, which means big armies very quickly

I think I need to experiment and maybe try a pre-shade wash, but then I'm also thinking it's as quick to drop a shade tone afterwards, so...

An interesting video of home-made contrast.

He is basically using Les' wash recipe but without any water to dilute the medium.

Interesting video. I've not got any of the acrylic inks, but I do have a big pot of Matt medium and flow improver.

Might try some mixes, as I quite often use the thinner paint over white approach.

The liquitex acrylic ink is around £6 for a 30ml bottle so twice as much colour for the same price as GW then you mix it with Matt medium to double the volume again, so if you want a lot it's cheaper. Also interesting from a playing to get results perspective.
