You can't go wrong with the Dulux roller.  Been my saviour for years!

Paint it Pink

Black undercoat, white drybrush to give more vibrancy to the main colour, which drybrushed on top. Followed by a wash and a highlight drybrush.
Unlike some people, I feel under no obligation to pretend that only one war-gaming scale is true, and that any others 6mm/10mm/15mm/25mm are mistaken; or that I know better than people themselves what is right for them to use. The point is precisely for all war-gamers to decide for themselves.

White undercoat, base layer, ink, highlight, repeat for other shades, then base up!

Black primer, basecoat, pinwash for fabric shadows, highlight. I say "fabric" because I use base, mid, highlight for flesh, metal, and wood.

I don't think it is a real term or not but what I mean is that I target just the specific recessed area or raised edge with a very fine tipped brush. I will sometimes first wash with a heavier loaded brush of the shadow color followed up by a lightly loaded one with a black wash.

What is a pinwash?

Basically it's a wash that is targeted to very specific areas on a model - eg rivets or folds on fabric or something - rather than a wash that covers everything...usually mixed thicker & painted on rather than slopped!
