			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I'm not the greatest painter, but I've had some luck with acrylics (miniatures/craft paints). Enamel paint doesn't work well, spray paint is a bit iffy, and vinyl dye is expensive.

This figure's accessories (hat, gun, skirt, armour) were all done with cheap acrylics. You'll want to thin the paint with water and use multiple light coats rather than globbing it on, then add a gloss over the paint if you want it to be shiny. Do some searches for "Warhammer figure painting" to get some great tips on painting plastic miniatures using acrylics.
