I decided it was time to compare GW Shades to Army Painter Washes. Both ranges have been revamped in the last couple of years and I hope this serves as a useful guide to what the differences are. I tested Agrax Earthshade, Seraphim Sepia, Nuln Oil and Targor Rageshade, along with diluted versions using Lahmian Medium mixed 1:1. You can see how they line up against Army Painter Strong Tone, Sepia Tone, Light Tone, Soft Tone, Dark Tone, as well as Rust Tone, in both neat and diluted forms (using Army Painter Wash Medium 1:1).
Overall, I think GW Shades make the recesses darker but also tint the original base colours more than Army Painter washes. Let me know what you think!
