Personally I feel the now-old GW paints were superior to Vallejo in some cases, although they had a small range of colors. <br /><br />GW paints held their pigments better when watered down so you could take a normal paint, make a wash or glaze with it easily. I'm still a little old-school in my painting though - I still use inks, lol. <br /><br />I'm excited about the new paints though. Especially the texture, glaze and wash lines. Layer paints are meh, nothing new.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11680110160882762433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896607568583881271.post-15044751097103303302012-04-10T22:22:07.953-07:002012-04-10T22:22:07.953-07:00Theres good news!
