New from Vallejo

Vallejo recently released two new products: washes and pigments.
The washes are obviously to compete with Games Workshop's latest line of washes. But where GW has a complete range of colors, Vallejo only has 2 so far: black and a sepia tone. There is a rumour that a third color will be added: a beige-brown.

Their other new product is a complete line of pigments, similar to MiG pigments, which is very popular among military modellers. But the Vallejo variant is cheaper and holds a third more powder than the MiG jars. I decided to pick up a red-brown tone to test it out on a base.

I'm currently working on a Space Marine Terminator and decided to use these new products on it. I will post a WIP picture very soon.
