It began with historical miniature painters dipping their minis in the kinds of products you'd normally use in wood finishing, such as urethane or polyurethane stains and varnishes. Quickshade is some kind of varnish.ĭipping models was en vogue some years back as a fast and easy way to shade models. Wash is basically just very thin acrylic paint with a high pigment density and perhaps a flow improver. Is it really much quicker than using a traditional wash? Whats the difference between a traditional type wash and quickshade? I not used any other traditional wash yet. Several people seen me using it and usually ask "why not use just a normal GW wash". I got the quickshade cause of all the buzz about speedy painting etc. Im happy with 'Average' looking models, and have been looking for ways to streamline the whole painting process. I have a habbit of picking infantry heavy armies ( 40k / FoW), sooo many little dudes to paint. I do enjoy painting, but I prefer the playing more. I have a bad back and spending any extended amount of time in one position hunched over can get quite uncomfortable/painful.
Or highlight models (though i dont want to be spending too long on each model). So i figure im either gonna have to use a brighter/lighter version of colours (suprisingly difficult to figure out). not dipping models, just brushing over whole thing then brushing excess off) (maybe im leaving too much quickshade on there?. I been doing some test models, they coming out a lot darker than expected. So im pretty new to miniature painting and recently got some Army painter quickshade, mainly as a means to paint quicker.
