RE: Flesh Wash Paint

I have taken to the Reaper paint line when I buy paint in the mini
store.
Otherwise I stick to the hobby paints like Apple Barrel or Folkart

I've been having some good luck with hobby store acrylics, like Folk Art
and
Americana. They come in 2 oz/59 ml bottles for US$0.89 to US$1.00 a
bottle,
but you can often find them on sale for as low as US$0.40 to US$0.60
each.

They tend to be a bit on the thick side, but the squeeze bottles allow
the
paint to last a long time, you get plenty of paint, and the selection
between
the various manufacturers is amazing.
