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...
