When Citadel's Contrast came out, I spent a couple of weeks tweaking, testing, and adjusting the ratios on a bottled mix of three different colours to get 'Contrast Feldgrau.' It looks pretty good, but it's definitely a lot more tweaking and fuss than I'd prefer out of a 'one coat' solution. Enter Vallejo Xpress' Wave 2 releases - the colours I think we were all waiting for!
Are they the magic bullet? I guess that depends on how this all looks to your eye! But it certainly fits the bill for me!
