Preferred paints?

[Luke the Squig]

I'm the same as Dad, Stuart. The only other miniature paints I've got lying around my room are old Arfix ones. But I would be interseted to see what other people use as I know that some people use different stuff like some of the many choices from the Hobby Hut, in Headless Cross. I find it easier to use GW tutorials then aswell as they always use GW paints (duuur) so you don't have to go round looking for paints that match their's but apparently the other paint manufactorers can produce some really nice colours and finishes, so any reccomendations would be welcome.
