I have recently painted my collection of Heretic Astartes which contains both very old models -- like the Space Crusade dreadnoughts -- and some very recent ones. I feel their design went the whole circle and returned to its roots. Excellent!
The best tool for paint stripping in my book is... brake fluid. The one used in cars. You can buy it at any gas station and at many run-of-the-mill supermarkets. It is designed not to damage metal car parts or plastic pipes but also to prevent corrosion and remove impurities. »
