Can anyone recommend a brand of white paint that covers well?

Depends on what it's covering... you looking for a primer over grey plastic and bare metal or a "reset button" over a variety of colors?

If you have time, then I recommend just using a normal white paint and painting several thinner, but well spread layers. The result is much smoother and nicer looking than one layer of thick, well-covering paint imo. Otherwise, you could try enamel paints, but they're brush killers, so I don't recommend them.

I like to imagine the Emperor kills so many Orks that he ends up half buried beneath a pile of corpses, with only his head sticking out. A lone grot stumbles across him, and starts choking him.

Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space.

Vallejo foundation white. Absolutley wicked stuff. Still works best over some light grey, but it's miles better than skull white.

Cheers guys (and girls)

I'm painting it over a basecoat of Astronomican Grey. Vallejo white it is, I'll have to order some today or tomorrow.

Vallejo FOUNDATION white. Vallejo Model Color 70919. Just so you don't go getting some normal white instead. :-)
