    Looking for local suppliers for these non-GW paints (Army Painter, Vallejo Air, etc)

    I searched the forum and can't find any recent results.

    Any idea where I can locally buy:

    Army Painter (looking for spray cans, the tones/dips, and inks.

    Vallejo Air Color (aka Model Air)

    Badger Minitaire

    Have decided to finally get my imperial fists painted and start playing in tournaments as opposed to home games. Just bought my first airbrush and compressor. My goal is to get the army together for TexasGamesCon in June.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hey Rob,

    I think Hobbytown might have or Kings Hobby. Those are the two places I would look first, if not check or call one of the hobby stores and I am sure they can order it from Alliance which is a local distributor.

    After reading this I have decided that the movie "Pineaple Express" should redo one of its quotes from:

    "But if you do something heroic then you'll come back as like an eagle or a dragon, or Jude Law."

    To:

    "But if you do something heroic then you'll come back as like an eagle or a dragon, or Nick Rose."

    Great Hall Games stock the Army Painter line. They also have Vallejo paints but I am not sure about "air".
    Mothership always covers my special orders for Army Painter.

    I Talked to Robby at D-Lair. They can special order these items for you. Including the Badger paints. Their turnaround for Vallejo products for me has been in a matter of days.

    Great Hall carries the Army Painter dips and sprays. The AP paints you will have to order.

    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?

    Wow, thanks to everyone for the quick replies. I'll be sure to start a thread and show the progress of the army.

    Wonko's also carries the army painter sprays.

    As an avid airbrusher I can tell you that nobody in town (Austin metro) stocks Minitiare or Vallejo Air, and special ordering can be hit or miss depending on color, particularly with the Vallejo Air paints. Alliance doesn't seem to stock Minitiare at all. Webairbrushes.com is where I obtain practically all my paints.

    Vallejo model air can be found at the hobby town in south park meadows.
    They only have the 8 paint or 16 paint sets though.
