Taking the question in the spirit in which I assume it is put, I would suggest a vortex paint shaker. I bought one last year and although I wouldn't put in the same life-changing league as discovering Pendraken, Centurion tanks, or the opposite sex, it has eased the chore of preparing paint.

The most useful thing that a wargamer could find is a mate who can paint decently and also charge a mates rates for the inevitable cost. Most useful if you are a prat at painting.

Patience, humour and a good imagination.

I would put it in a bigger box, so that it is less likely to get missed/lost, it will protect the package better and of course allow space for the labels. This is based upon decades of sending prototype models to all corners of the globe. Hope this helps?

I suspect Royal Mail, despite the horror stories on here. Amazon may work as well.

I have a very small parcel to send to Singapore.

125 Grammes, about 18x12x2.5cm.


Can anybody recommend a cheap and reliable (ie likely to arrive) parcel service that civilians like me can access.
A sentence or two on how it all works would also be welcome.

My biggest concern is that the address label, and customs forms will be bigger than the actual box.

Thanks

Agree with the stuff so far, but a major one is missing - patience.

Dremel mini drill or equivalent
Daylight lamps in painting area

Most important - A good spouse who lets you spend hours (or days in my case) painting and brings you refreshments
