Editing Paint (section)

== Usage ==
Paints are essential to many traditional games, as many use models as part of their games.  Some games have models that come [[grey]] and so must be coated paint in whatever combination, however artful or bizarre, that you like before you can play them.

Most /tg/ makers make their own paints as well, 'official' paints to be used on their models which they recommend, although in practice a number of suppliers make paints of a better quality then others and wise people quickly find out the best ones for the jobs.

Some companies like [[Games Workshop]] and [[Vallejo]] create huge paint ranges, that frankly become insane; with minor variations only someone with an equally insane eye could bother to tell the difference between.  GW really double-down on their insanity by [[rage|totally rebooting the names and the colors they have on offer]] every seven years or so.  Other companies create a small range of standard paints, which are expected to be hand-mixed on the fly to achieve the colors and shades you want.
