The Army Painter Quickshade Soft Tone. This Quickshade is the lightest of the three Quickshades we offer and is therefore typically used on lighter colors. It creates a perfect shade for lighter skin tones, pinks, yellows, and whites. If a subtle, contrasting shade is desired, the Soft Tone is the perfect choice.
Quickshade is a pigmented varnish that provides miniatures with perfect shadow accents (also called patination) while still allowing the colors to show through. Painting armies with stunning results becomes easy, especially when combined with various color primers. This allows you to paint entire armies in a short time, with impressive detail.
Quickshade was specifically developed and designed to work with 10-28mm miniatures and should not be confused with cheap colored floor varnishes and shoe polishes. These are too coarse for miniatures.
To use Quickshade, the miniatures are dipped in the product and then left to dry for 24 hours. The resulting high gloss can be dulled with "Anti-shine" spray.
