I wanted to go for a dark colour to the main Toga on these orcs so that it would contrast when I add the metallic parts and the skulls.

The contrast paint goes on like an ink. It’s thicker than the shades or glazes but nowhere near as thick as even a layer paint.

The thickness of the paint makes it difficult to use in small areas, you really have to slap it on and just let it flow and pool into the recesses of the mini. Although I found that if you paint the area to want to cover with a thin layer on your brush you can then go back and fill-in a few seconds later with more paint and the paint will flow over the wet paint you just laid down. This means you’re not trying to use a fully loaded brush over undercoat all the time and can be more accurate. I’m so used to using thinned base paints that I’m almost biting my lip when I paint the brown as it does run in places over the green but never mind, these are board game models and I only want a table standard on them, not going for golden Daemon quality and its only a test for these paints on these 50 or so minis.
