Replacement for Cryptek Armourshade Gloss

[Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch]

Hey all,

 

I am currently (finally!) working through painting my Silent King, following Duncan's Painting Academy tutorial. Unfortunately, Armorshade gloss has since been discontinued, and he uses it in the tutorial. As far as I can tell, he really only uses it for Szarekh and the two Triarchal Phaerons, but it's not an insignificant use. I know it's been out of stock for a couple of years, but does anyone know any good ideas for mixing a replacement, or a substitute from another painting line?

 

Cheers,

DPL

Not sure about a replacement. You might be able to use the new Agrax Earthshade? My Necrons use it, so I just stashed a few bottles of it so that I didn't have to find a replacement.

I miss all the gloss washes, what are we supposed to shade metallics with now?

 

You might want to experiment with Army Painter Dark Tone wash. It is not glossy but it is darker than Aggrax but not black. Sort of between Aggrax and Nuln Oil.

Is this any help?

 

Juan Hidalgo uses Guilliman Flesh over silver in his video.

I've just double checked to be sure, BUT, you get one through the Hatchette Imperium collection. Issue 33.
