Aren't we all, always?  :D

I'm thinking maybe something about painting PP resin models - huts and trucks?

I have some PP scenic items in need of paint, so might give those a go with shading and drybrushing. Might make a neat little article. Will also have a go at an Epic TYW lancer personal guard unit using the PP cuirassier standard bearers I bought last year. Maybe issue 20 or 21. Lot of stuff on the go at the moment.

Washes are, I believe, invaluable in bringing out the detail of PP scenics, Andy!

Inks etc are great. In my early gaming days enamel colours were applied, no dry brushing no inks. Maybe a patch of a lighter colour at shield edge or cloak fold.
I have not go very excited about dip varnishes (army painter)  or one coat shaders (Games workshop), but Vallejo and similar acrylics make my like much better.
My biggest happy is for the acrylic metallics which are superb in my opinion.

Of course, but it would be crass to talk about that in public, old boy.

Ah yes, the toffs rarely admit where the money has come from or goes to.
