<p><font size="2">I posted this elsewhere but the response was so positive that I decided to post it here </font></p><p><font size="2"> <img width="786" height="643" border="0" src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b395/skeewin/Demonette-washexample.jpg" /></font></p><p><font size="2">This was painted by one of employees in our local GW (Solomon Witt) I only took pictures.<br /><br /> I am doing it from memory so I may skip a step or two but it went like this. I don't remember the number of drybrushing steps on claws, but the number of washing steps is exactly as described.<br /><br /> 1) prime white<br /> 2) wash with Asurmen blue, leaving most of the claws unpainted. wait till dries<br /> 3) wash claws with Baal red partially overlapping with blue portion, wait till it dries<br /> 4) wash with Asurmen blue all over including claws, wait till it dries<br /> 5) Drybrush red portion of claws with blood red<br /> 6) wash claws again with baal red<br /><br /> Done. Whole thing took about 30 minutes. For a table top army it could be fielded as is (after basing) and most likely it will look better then ~70% of demonets out there</font> </p><font size="2" />

I think they might regret discontinuing all their inks, which are much more useful for careful/advanced techniques, but this is really astounding for speed painters. I expect to see a lot of cheap painted armies popping up on eBay in the coming months.

With a tiny bit more work you could really make these models shine, just use a different basecoat for subtle variations in texture/material. Done!

Thanks for the pic.

My set of washes arrived in the post yesterday. I have a few models that need painting up. I'll give them a go using some of these.

The purple (more like a violet) was created by simple layering of one over the other. You apply the first wash (blue) and after it dries you apply the other (red) over it.
