Exactly as Ian said. No other way to paint and once you start using one you won't stop. Very easy to set up. I use a cheap plastic food container I got at the dollar store with a top. I use baby wipes, not the ones with oil or aloe, then put enough water in to barely cover the wipes, then use a piece of parchment paper cut to size, then drop your paint onto the parchment. Use non waxed parchment. It works great and saves a ton of paint. I started using one to help keep my paints wet. You can top it and store it in the fridge if you want. I've had paints last 4 or 5 days before they start getting too watered down. Works very well for custom mixed colors that you may need on several figs but don't want to have to mix for each fig.
I've been looking at the 'Scale 75" paints lately. They get a lot of good reviews. Problem is I have a ton of Vallejo and they work well, so it makes it tuff to try out something that I already have and like.
And yes Chuck, I promise I'll take lots of pics(of my mediocre painting) of the Frenchies. Really looking forward to trying my hand at them. I've not painted anything human that big before.
