Angry This pisses me of about Tamiya at times

This is what pisses me of about Tamiya at times. They bring out a really nice kit that i'd like to make and now i've just read that to paint the blue on the kit you have to mix X14:5 + X4:1 to get the correct colour.
Now those of us with out air brushes it pisses me off. If they are going to release a kit, at least make a can to go with it

Well, knowing tamiya, they might just release a limited release custom color spray can for this car.

Yes, maybe (hopefully) they will do like the Ferrari F310B.
When it was out the body was paint using a mix of 2 colours.
Later they have release a spray for both F310B and F1-2000.
They will probably release it later.

I have a airbrush and have the same trouble, trying to match x colours to their ts range of paints, can be very frustrating at times.

Sorry to hear that mate. How expensive are airbrushes anyway over there? Maybe you should look into one.

Yes, it works both ways. Especially when you can't even buy the TS paints in this country...

Aaaaaahhhhhh!!!!! Not a spray can!!!! Just give us a code with which we can order automotive paint AND a complementary airbrush for Warren!!

How you finish those models with spray cans is beyond me, mate! Supernatural!

Cheers,
Erik.
