May I ask what people would recommend as a good paint for touching up ht heads? , got a superman figure with chippped paint on the hair I would like to fix. Also a Keaton batman, that has black paint chipping off the bat logo.
 
Tamiya acrylic!

Yet yourself the primary colors all in flat, black, brown, White, gloss coat and matte spray and you will have pretty much anything you will ever need
 
You want less stress try vallejo paints specifically barbarian flesh tone is a good base. The game paints in flesh colors I recommend getting plus fairy and malefic flesh set gives you wide range of blending and hues.

Also life color makes a skin tone set. Called flesh paint set.

Tamiya is tricky, sticky and I hate the results.

3 companies did similar sets. But the fairy, maleific and game flesh tones are all different by hues.

Barbarian flesh(next to dark fleshtone) is very close to hot toys by itself. So is burned flesh. The other colors help with blending.

Pale is great to mix for highlights
Dwarf skin adds yellow tannish tones. Charred brown great for dark shading when blended. As with dark fleshtone.

The fairy and malefic sets have blended colors that hits skin with with dimensions. Making all 3 sets worth buying
