My hobby shop doesn't seel Tamiya paints! :o
I visited my local hobby store on ther way home today, and they have NO Tamiya paints of any description
 They had Humbrol sprays, but I remember reading that these are inferior. Does anyone know where I can get some Tamiya stuff? Online order or whatever really. |

How ish is London(ish)? You can send paints using surface mail, so Hannants or other major suppliers could post it to you.
I think it is a case of searching around. I didn't find anything her ein Melbourne until after a few weeks of searching. Now I have everything and more! |

I'm just outside North London really. We only have the one hobby shop in town though, I don't know if I can justify £10 to get into London and back just to buy some paints, if I can buy them online.

Yep, GPM is 5min drive away
 Although I seem to recall them not having paint... Perhaps I'm getting mixed up though. And HLJ have taken 2 and a half weeks so far for one order, don't know that I want to wait that long to get started on things once the order arrives  |

My local hobby shop doesn't stock Tamiya paints either, but
the CAN order them and get them within 3 days. May want to ask them about it.
