Sausages are the everything. I can’t put it more simply than that

Speaking if warlord sprues, wargames emporium in sheffield had 3 boxes of warlord ecws at a tenner a box.

Fredd, that is like LSD in a sugar cube outside the local primary school.

Geez Grizz... you sound like an expert. Do you have a rusty old van with ‘Sweeties’ painted on the side too?

[grizzlymc]

Hush, the case was dismissed.

Only if you promised to never return to central or south america ever again.

I ordered several brown and drab shades to try on horses and WWII type troops. I expect there's a bit of learning curve to master given the viscosity and pooling but finger crossed that its a true time saver. If so, I could see myself actually painting my Space Hulk gene stealers...

Have now trialled the Skelton Horde and Orc Green on some Fenris ghouls. It’s not bad, but yes, watch the pooling. Popped back in the shop to pick up a grey and red for a test on some AWI English and got a not at all patronising lecture on how this paint system completely upends all previous painting techniques

Thinning with water works and I suspect my Orc and Gobbo horde will finally be finished now.

Isn't pooling what these things are supposed to do?

I don't really understand, are they a goopy wash or a transparent paint?

Heeeheee, must be lucky, when I picked a couple up at my local gw, store manager admitted they do not work for his style at all.

Not used any colours yet, but have used the paint on primer undercoat and am impressed with that.
