The Army Painter Voodoo Shade (John Blanche) WP4017P

John Blanche Masterclass Series Wash

Voodoo Shade is part of The Army Painter’s acclaimed John Blanche Masterclass Series, a collection of paints and washes inspired by the distinctive artwork and painting philosophy of John Blanche. Developed to complement the Warpaints Fanatic range, this specialised wash is designed to create rich shadows, enhanced contrast and atmospheric finishes across a wide variety of miniature painting projects.

Designed to work alongside the Flexible Triad System, Voodoo Shade helps painters quickly add depth and definition to sculpted details. The wash naturally settles into recesses, folds and panel lines, enhancing surface texture while preserving raised details. Its versatile tone makes it suitable for use on fabrics, armour, leather, skin, wood, stone and a variety of organic materials.

The John Blanche Masterclass Series encourages painters to focus on mood, storytelling and visual texture. Voodoo Shade supports this approach by providing a practical way to create aged, weathered and characterful effects without requiring complex blending techniques. The wash can be used to reinforce shadows, unify colour transitions or add subtle tonal variation across larger surfaces.

Explore the full John Blanche paints range to discover complementary colours designed to work together within the Flexible Triad System.

Suitable for brush application, Voodoo Shade can be applied directly for strong shadow effects or diluted for softer tonal transitions. It works particularly well on fantasy miniatures, science fiction figures, historical subjects and display models where additional depth and atmosphere are desired.
