Airsail Online

I get some of my GK paint accessories here:

http://www.modelair.co.nz/index.php

They have a lot of Tamiya products, but as we all know Tamiya paints are good in an air-brush but on a brush they suck. Modelair's Tamiya Primer and Putty is pretty good though. They also stock a range of Gunze and Vallejo paints.

Personally, I get my paints from all over; Mont Marte Metallic and Fluoro from Australia, Mr Color from the US and Citadel from the local Coastlands ToyWorld.

You have to shop around to get what suits you the best.

Stocked up on tamiya paints and some good brushes from:

macks tracks. Sucks

Who do you say that iintruder?

I get a my Primers and Testor's stuff from Mack Tracks and I reckon he's good. His emails are always pleasant, he tries to get things I want but doesn't stock, his prices are competative and he's fast getting stuff to me.
