    If I tell you, "You're wrong," you'll need to click this.

    Does anybody else find it odd, by the way, that the information age has led to language becoming an oblique and imprecise tool where even the most straightforward phrasing is pored over with chicken entrails and bone tossing to divine the true meaning?

    very cool.

    ProTip: Put a dollop of paint on each of the white caps - its shows you what the color really looks like and is easier to see. (not possible on the Model air, unfortunately)

    You know, I used to do that, but I still end up looking at the paint. I have mostly P3 and GW pots, so I just store them upside down so I can see the color through the bottom.

    Yeah, but my point is more about the color through the plastic bottle is not correct. Its always dimmer and more pastel, or in the case om many vallejo colors, has separated at some point, stained the inside of the bottle, and so looks nothing like the paint that's inside at all.

    Speaking of which, where do you guys procure the Model Air series locally?

    There was a time when King's had them, but they quit getting them and I bought the last bottle they had over a year ago. They might get more at some point, but who knows. There was a time or two that I spotted one at Greathall Games, but not very often or recently. They still have Model Color and some Game Color. I usually get my Model Air online.
