I use games workshop paints and put down layers of different color paints to give it a realistic look , that is called dry brushing . It is a different technique not used by more than a handful of guys on this site, but if you have a custom figure that is detailed this looks 1000 bazillion times better than anything else for realism. You can even ad some of the Met dirt on their uniforms.

pm 513 studios. His name is Chris, that is where I get all of my advice .

I should say if you use decals, there is not a cleaner look than that. Decals do look very good, just my prefered way of painting is dry brushing.
