TANKDUEL,
I have like $12 in paint on my Tiger, its all rattle can. I figure if its good enough for auto applications it will last on my tanks, and if it does fade it will only ad to the appearance. I understand if you are doing fine detail work you will want to use an airbrush and a paintbrush, then yea I would %100 agree with you, but for base coats, I think the cheaper stuff is just as good and ya get a lot more.
Do you bleed Tamiya? I'm just messing with ya, your paint jobs are phenomenal, like Tomzag's. I just wanted to add my 2 cents and let people know there are cheaper solutions.
