I have painted each piece with a different Dipping Ink, one layer applied manually (by brush), let them dry and prepared a comparison exposition by gluing each piece beside its corresponding example at the back of the box. Perfect to display what the Dipping Inks can achieve, depending on the surface. I have received three of such sets: Dipping Inks 03, Dipping Inks 04 and Dipping Inks 05 and put them to a test to compare the end results with box examples.įor the purpose of proper testing I have selected a set of old school Undead shield adornments (Warhammer Fantasy Battles), featuring some deep recesses, sharp detail and flat areas. Personally I rarely use similar types of paints to start a paint job, but I find them perfect to substitute washes and/or apply blends with, instead.ĭipping Washes come either solo, or packaged inside well thought through color themed sets of six. Alternatively, depending on your skill and expectations, you can build from there by applying more coats, highlights and shadows. It barely takes a bright undercoat such as white, a single coat of speed paint and you can call it done. Thanks to a single coat producing both vibrant highlights and strong shadows, this type of semi-transparent paints is aimed at painting miniatures with ease and speed. The Dipping Inks is a speed painting system containing paint recipes designed and perfected by Green Stuff World. Please note that this review is not sponsored by Green Stuff World.

First on the line are the aforementioned Dipping Inks. I took some of them for a spin and decided to share my experience with you.

Recently I have received a chunky package filled with Green Stuff World products, to do with them as I please. The more the merrier, thus the Green Stuff World, a Spanish company well established in the hobby market, dipped their toes in the trend with their line of Dipping Inks paints. Different companies jumped on top of the hype wagon, releasing their own version of the recipe, with mixed results. Seems like following the release of Games Workshop’s Contrast Paints, painting miniatures on easy mode became the new hotness.
