There is a little trick I learned from a friend. He was putting on a 
game at a convention and
one of the players would not stop complaining. He took a stand away from

one of the complainers
units and when he asked what he was doing he said "you were not paying 
attention to your army
and they deserted". The complainer was just about to say something when 
he say my friend
reaching for the next stand and he shut up. End of argument.

When someone complains about a painted figure take it away (if his 
figure) or transfer out of
his army to the one he complained about (if an opponent). He will 
shortly see the light or at
least keep quiet for the durration of the game.
