A load of slightly thick GW paints that need watered down.

This is the stuff I always have stocked (as in, they are always on hand when needed and get replaced when necessary). Anyway, here goes (off the top of my head)...

x1 Clippers
x3 Files
x1 Knife (removing mold lines)
x1 Chaos Black Spray (I buy in SW Spray if needed)
x1 Green Stuff roll (I just mess around with the stuff, I'm not skilled enough to do anything impressive)
x2 Sculpting Tools (For GS)
x2 Fine Detail Brushes
x1 Detail Brush
x2 Small Drybrushes
x1 Standard Brush
x1 Medium Drybrush
x1 Large Drybrush
- Lot's of a assorted paints/washes/inks etc.

Fair amount now that I think of it!

As for equipment, what do you mean? Paints? Brushes? Modelling tools?

Go to the feminine hygiene section of the market.

No not THAT part, the part right next to it. They have pokers and snips and files and polishers and tweezers and god knows what all else.
I've actually used rouge as a rust weathering powder as well.

They're in there with their bear.
Proper grammar. Learn it, live it, love it.

Three old pots of water, one for washing out metallic paints, one for washing out non metallic paints, and one full of clean water for watering down paints. A light. Brushes. A set of 3 x-acto knives. A set of 4 files. Clippers. Huge drawer of paints/washes. White and Black spray paint. Bitz box. Green stuff. Green flock, modelling snow, box of sand. Lots of foam under the table for scenery. Pliers...don't really know why, I never use em....
