...in a good way! These new washes from Vallejo Acrylics are designed to behave like solvent based washes...using a water based formula. A Chipping Medium and German ISAF color set are also hitting the shelves.

I am trying to figure if there is a difference from their exiting washes, which I use and like. I did notice there are more colors, and the bottles are different.

Here in Ottawa there are two local hobby shops that carry the complete lines, so it if very handy.

The new line of washes are a different formulation that their washes that are currently on the market.

While the new ones are an acrylic, they behave more like an enamel wash. Not sure how they did that, but apparently it works.

They aren't out in North America yet (at least none of my suppliers carry it yet) but they are supposed to be coming soon.
