I've been experimenting with underpainting in white prime then washes for speed paint 2.0 and was wondering with I could use quick shade dip instead?
I've attached some photos of minis I've used washes already on along with some minis I put some speed paints on. Would I be able to get a similar result with quick shade dip? Or is it too thick? I have never used the dip wash before but would like to hear some opinions before buying.

I am no expert with quickshade dip, but I seem to remember using it for my first minis. (it was given to me as part of my starting set )
I seem to recall that it is more solvent based and has a more glossy finish wich may or may not be suitable for what you want to achieve, also if you want to apply it with brush instead of dipping in th whole mini, you'll need solvent to clean your brush.
Can you detail why you'd like to change so other may help answering this thread? You seem to be getting good result with your current solution. Is it the price?

I wanted to see if dipping the minis in a quick shade can would be faster than using brushing it on. My current method takes around 4 drops from a army painter dropper bottle per mini, so I was thinking buying a dip can would be cheaper in the long run
The glossy finish shouldn't matter too much unless the finish will make it harder for speed paints to go over on top. I'm planning on matt spraying everything once I'm done

The gloss surface will make the speedpaint flow more into the recesses which can be a good or bad thing depending if you wanted to tint more or less the outward faces.

How thick is quick shade, will I lose alot of detail?
