La Blau with Magic Wash.

I just finished painting a squad of the Blue Division with the Magic Wash. I made them with half box of Warlord German plastic soldiers as they had the same unifom and equipment.
I block painted them and then washed them with the Magic Wash mix. The result is OK but I think this technique gets better on smaller scales like 1/72 th or even 15 mm.
They will soon see some action fighting against Communism in Russia! Here you can see some pictures of them. Pictures are clickable.

Acabo de terminar de pintar un pelotón de la División Azul con el Magic Wash. Los hice con media caja de los soldados alemanes de plástico de Warlord ya que usaban el mismo uniforme y equipamiento.
Los pinté con color base y luego les pasé la mezcla por encima. El resultado no está mal pero creo que esta técnica funciona mejor con escalas más pequeñas como el 1/72 o incluso los 15 mm.
¡Pronto entrarán en acción luchando contra el Comunismo en Rusia! Aquí pueden ven algunas fotos. Si pinchan en las fotos se ven más grandes.

  3. Great painting job. One question: is the Magic Wash does the same job as the Army Painter (http://www.thearmypainter.com) ?

  5. Basically yes. It runs on the figures faster than Army Painter, but it works better with very detailed miniatures. The good thing is that you can use it with any colour and it doesn't smell as it's acrilic.
