Re: painting figures
Figure painting is pretty different once you go for detail. Shading becomes key.
But to start, prime them white then brush paint the main colors, starting with the deepest layers then going outwards (skin to most outside layer of clothing). Acrylics are best, but not Tamiya... they don't do well on brushes. Games Workshop (they make Warhammer) paints are ideal but it's silly to buy a whole line of paint just for this. If the figures are big enough you can try airbrushing the main colors. A good site for figure painting tips is http://www.paintingclinic.com .
