Forgive me for my ignorance but I am not sure how the look was achieved.

What is "minwax" and casn it be doing in any colour?

it looks different to the standard "wash over white" look

Cheers

Forgive me if I'm wrong for those with more experience in the matter. The difference is because dips and washes are essentially just thin liquids. Minwax, I presume is like shoe polish or a similar material. But I could be wrong.

Minwax polyshades is a product combining wood stain with finish (most likely satin in this case). It is commonly referred to as the dip in wargaming circles. I suspect the color Tudor was used in this case.

I'm going to have to try this technique on some of my 15mm zombie horde. It looks great and I suspect will be a really fast way to get to the table for some gaming.
