I Second the LA amazing. it is what I use. Some advice on metal Minis; Prime, then glosscoat, then matcoat THEN paint. Then coat with gloss or matcoat again for good measure. If you can rip off the metal heads and replace with plastic, then more power to you. I find that the metal heads are lacking in detail. also, never give up on transfers. Once you get the hang of it it can realy add to your model.
Spoiler:

I think the reason GW likes blue and green sooo much is that blue and green paints are actually the hardest to clean out of the ferrule of a brush, and lead to the brush actualy loosing quality quite quickly in comparison with other pigment. then we buy new brushes. This is a fact.
I run a Godhammer landraider filled with 4 thss and 1 lc, and a LRC with 4 Lightning claw termies and one thss. one is for squashing a big thing, the other is for squashing many little things. LRC also has some kind of character in it usualy.

That's a very expensive list.. That's like, easily 900pts >_> My man here doesn't even have that many overall, and Terminators aren't that good in 6th with the event of plasma spam, so they're pretty useless regardless..
TBH they have never failed to earn back their points. there are DA allies in the list, so the landraiders get 4++. Usually reserved for 3k games and 3+ save to shrug of plasma anyway. Oh yeah and there are 2 MM's on the lr and stormbolter+HK missile on the LRC MWAHAHHA . Termies all have 6+ fnp and raiders are IWND, due to the fact I use IH chapter tactics.
cant wait to see paint on derp.
