Quickshade Tin, Strong Tone - 250ml

Army Painter Quickshade is the great shortcut that changed tabletop painting — a rich, varnish-based shade that flows into every recess in a single pass, instantly adding depth and definition. Strong Tone is the do-it-all middle ground: a heavy brown shade that gives deep, dramatic shading and looks superb over reds, desert yellows and all manner of greens. If in doubt, this is the one.

Best for

• Deep, dramatic all-round shading
• Reds, desert yellows and greens
• Dipping or brushing onto a whole model quickly

The most versatile of the three tones — when you're not sure which to reach for, Strong Tone rarely puts a foot wrong.

The fast track to a finished army. Follow up with a matte varnish to knock back the shine.
