I think Devlan Mud is a bit less red/orange than Agrax Earthshade, but they’re both very neutral. Army Painter Strong Quickshade on top, washes below.įirst, a comparison between Devlan Mud and Agrax Earthshade.
Ink Wasy Comparison: Essex Early Egyptians. Here is a comparison shot detailing the results. An old Reaper flesh ink with water added.I also used these inks and washes that I had on hand for more comparison: I liked this for comparison purposes because white is notoriously difficult to shade well, and it doesn’t disguise the color of the ink wash at all. These figures are almost entirely flesh and white. On another stick, I used Army Painter Strong Tone Quickshade. I was painting a DBA Early Egyptian army, so on one stick of archers, I painted all of the figures identically but applied different washes to each. I meant to get Army Painter’s Strong Tone Ink for a better direct comparison with the Quickshade. Army Painter Dark Tone Ink (not the Quickshade dip).Games Workshop’s Agrax Earthshade wash, which seems to be their replacement for Devlan Mud.When I was at Legions for Stoogecon, I picked up 3 possible replacements to try out: Unfortuantely, Devlan Mud is no longer available, since Games Workshop recently completely revamped their paint line.
It works well straight out of the bottle, and produces reasonable results in areas where I’m not that interested in painting in highlights and shadows, but when I also don’t want to dip the whole figure. Games Workshop’s Devlan Mud wash has been a commonly used weapon in my painting arsenal since I got back into painting miniatures 3 years ago.
Devlan Mud is Dead! Long Live Devlan Mud!
