| Decided on thisunit as a test unit to see how useful the paint pens could be in a 'real life' situation. |
 |
| Personal opinion? Very useful. On the other hanhd my son Steven had a go and decided they didn't suit him... |
 |
| Really should have taken the photo before the gloss varnish... Anyway, base, green clothing, flesh, inside of shield and hair/beard all painted, rest used paint pens. |
 |
| Shield was painted bronze, everything else paint pens - lot quicker and more accurate - though, to be fair quite a low starting point. I was very happy with the way they coped with helmet crests. |
Final verdict? Very useful. Negatives include how long the nibs may last, limited useful colour range available for wargames purposes, can't cope with undercuts or tight spaces, not sure how available individual colours may be available - but sets are cheap so not really an issue.
