The Army Painter Quickshade Strong Tone is the most popular Quickshade on the market. The all-round qualities make it ideal for every color. It makes deep and perfect shadows on the mini-figures and uses a lot of brown pigment. Strong Tone works well on "Pure Red", "Desert Yellow" and all types of green primers and paints.
Quickshade is a pigmented varnish, which ensures that miniatures are perfectly provided with shadow accents (also called patinating) and yet show the colors. Painting armies with amazing results becomes easy, especially if this product is combined with the different color primers. In this way you can paint entire armies in a short period of time that look impressively detailed in less time.
Quickshade has been specially developed and designed to work with 10-28mm miniatures and should not be confused with cheap floor varnishes on color and shoe polishes. These are too coarse for the thumbnails.
To use Quickshade, the thumbnails are "dipped" in the Quickshade, after which they have to dry for 24 hours. The high gloss that remains afterwards can possibly be matted with the "Anti-shine" spray.
