xscotteex Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Hey guys, first off not sure if this was in the right board so feel free to move if it isn't So yeh, after a bit of hiatus i've come back to my beloved hobby and i now need to get back on my feet. Now ive found all my old hobby tools but none of my paints. So next pay cheque im looking to fork out for a decent amount of paints. Im also aware that the citadel pack is now discontinued (even if it was ludicrously pricey it was a maybe) So im looking for alternatives in both price and quality. I dabbled slightly into the rackham paint range and found these paints to be worth a lot as they are thick and therefore require thinnning, meaning it goes further. But im struggling to find a decent sized set/ pack of paints with a good range Anyone got any ideas? And also need tips on the best brushes too Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244913-paint-set/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venerable Jazzman Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Wargames Foundry do 3-part paint systems, with a base colour, highlight and shade. Might be worth looking in to.
