So I'm thinking of picking up a battlebox from Warmachine, Privateer Press's steam-powered tabletop game with steel-plated balls. My question to you guys is - especially you modelers - what do you recommend I use to put the things together? I'm looking at Khador, just for specifics. I have some minor painting experience with my Tau guys from 40k, and I have a few Citadel paints lying around. I'm more interested in glues and brushes and stuff, but paints are also of interest.
On that note, what do you like to use in your model building and painting? I propose this thread act as the go-to place for all things modeling.
Sorry if it's in the wrong place, feel free to move it.

Bah, you're fine here ^^
I will suggest that you do not use real-hair brushes. Go for something synthetic. I say this because real-hair brushes tend to come apart a bit more easily, and make painting a bit more of a pain.
Also, as long as you aren't doing fine detail, a finger-width brush should be fine, but don't go any bigger than that or you'll probably end up wasting paint.
Conspiracy Comics has some nice crushes, but they're expensive.
EDIT: I love your avatar!!!! XD

Ahhh! Warmachine: I've got a few of them lying around: hell, my juggernaut is the model I use to prove that I can paint.
Anyways: Normal super-glue for putting them together. Citadel or P3 paints work great, and if you're looking for the glossy look than Kustom Kolor clear coat is great. (And fun to say)
My names Dane, by the way, and if you do get into Warmachine more seriously, look me up: Warhammer players are rare, Warmachine players even more so.

I have a violent hatred of superglue, mainly cuz my fingers start to stick together, and my models refuse to do so. I might just be doin it wrong, so i dunno XD

I just got some new supplies on the club bill, so that we can have a sit down day at some point and paint, glue and work on stuff as a club. For free-ish. Would any of you folks want to come out to that, or maybe just a play day at the school?

I think that would be a pretty sweet idea, and I'm all for it if enough people are interested and I happen to be in town next year.
