Dipping Caos Marauders

Time ago I discovered a dipping technique in an Spanish Forum that intrigued me. This dipping technique is as usual, either submerging the miniature or doing it with a brush. What it's different to other systems is the products used. Instead of using the Army Painter or a wood stain like Minwax, I'm using a matt colourless wood varnish and mixing it with a product to shade wood called "Betún de Judea" (surely this has a name in English but right now I cannot remember it -Betumen of Judea?-). The good thing about it is that you control the mix and can do it more or less dark according to what you want to dip.

Here are the materials, the Tamiya tin is containing the mix used to dip the marauders.

And here is a picture of the marauders painted and before the dip...


...And after the dip.


A close up of the riders. I specially like their skin (look their arms), but also the horses.


Another close up. Notice the definition of the shields.

I'm very pleased with the results, both speed and quality, and I'm definitely painting all my Caos army with this system.
