Hi guys
I don't know where you get your Tamiya paints from but I've been buying them of Ebay for around £2.80ish. The other day the wife asked me to take her to local hobbycraft store in Cardiff again. She loves the place and I always wait in the car what do I want in a bead and sowing shop. This time I went in with her to fetch and carry the stuff she buys.I noticed that they sell plastic models so I went to investigate. Low and behold flat Tamiya paints the same stuff I pay around £2.80 odd for. It was only £1.85 each I bought a load of them. So I'll be taking her more often now. I just thought I'd share with you guys.

Thanks Adrian, A nice site and its in the UK and it does Mail order and not just Tamiya Acrylic but Humbrol complete with paint accessories. Decent prices and plenty of stores around the Country.

When I need a few pots of Tamiya, I get mine from my nearest Hobbycraft, as it's not worth the petrol just for one. I find it very frustrating, though, on two counts. The paints are all mixed up and in no particular order. There is a limited selection of colours.

Hi guys.
When I checked the web site they only showed a couple of paint colours but when I went in my local store (20 miles away. LOL) they had a lot more colours and lots of flat colors.
