But for the bulk stuff - craft paints all the way! I am fond of Americana and Ceramcoat, both have decent coverage without too much thinner. (Apple Barrel is at the rock bottom of my list - too granular, and separates way too easily, causing streaks.) And since the bulk stuff is about 90% of each figure you end up using very little of the expensive paints.An exception in regards to craft paints - for yellows you are much better served with the good stuff - yellows can be the biggest pain in the tuckus.... greens can also be a problem, but the Americana greens seem to work just fine. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />And always use the good paints for metallics, there is an enormous difference between them.The Auld Grump</blockquote>
