Magic marker 'paint' on minis? Interesting - how did it turn out
compared
to regular actual paint?

Derek is, of course, probably going to try and arrange to burn you as a
heretic. This is worse than the 'spray-can-only' infidels!

I've used black technical pen on a few of my minis, and haven't yet had
a
problem with reactivating under spray varnish. Three or four minis does
not a comprehensive survey make, though.
