To be fair the only P3 washes I have are flesh and armour so I can't exactly provide a comprehensive assessment, but I really like both of them. Your wash cost:model ratio could be even better! If the container's an issue keep a couple of your GW wash pots when done and decant the Army Painter stuff in there, Near as damn it the same product and 17 ml rather than 12. If you go through Agrax and Nuln a lot then I am surprised you haven't made the switch to Army Painter Strong and Dark tone. If you do accidentally get a bit too much out of your bottle at least you had more to begin with I find I'm pretty good at judging how much wash I need at a time and have a preference for dropper bottles so there's no issue there for me.

If I had to pick a second brand, I would go with Army painter, which I use from time to time on terrain. Which, I guess is just a way of saying as expensive as paints are, models are way crazier But seriously, my only two washes that I go through tons of is nuhln and agrax. They also are in a pot instead of dropper, and usually, that works better for me in washes (since my wash brush is always clean and I don't have to worry about contamination - plus, it's hard to gauge how much wash I'm going to use).Īlso, my mileage on washes is really quite good relative to the price of a model, the cost of all the paints and washes that go on it can't be more than a fraction of 1%. However, cost aside, I think GW washes are a very complete range and work quite well. The benefit of getting them from those other lines? More wash in the bottle, generally for less money with the same or better functionality as their GW equivalent.įor sure, GW is a more expensive alternative. However I have never found a GW wash that doesn't have it's equal (at the very least) in either P3, Army Painter or Secret Weapon's product line apart from Coelia Greenshade.
