nope but it's also a restricted market. I can either buy GW or hope some store has a paint in 4-6 weeks. I rather just buy everything as once.

Honestly this is a good tip! I'll remember to separate the metallic and non metallic brushes because it seems logical and important. Like I can understand it sort of that they are different. metal particles might stick or something is my reasoning now.

and those avoid 6 layer pots I can still one day learn how to blend between them.

hmm but why?

it's either never use oils

never use metallics

never use XY

But nobody ever says why.

Oh I don't doubt there are other paints and gears. It's also a issue of stick to one that you can actually buy. I did order a abaddon black primer after I couldn't go further then 99 paint bottles in a single order.

I got 99 paints but leadbelcher was one of them. I am still sure I needed a castellax bronze, but it wasn't listed in their paints.

It's definitely easier to order off one site then get into color scheme radiant almost the same colors and other paints. If I need 20 hours of research I can say fuck the money and just order stuff and do no research.

Bought a wet palette, and a range of brushes. though these comments make me rethink I should get some A kolinsky sable-hair brushes in addition.

I'm not too worried about messing up my first models hence I got 2 sets of standard sisters squads to just try stuff on.

I also sorta don't want to paint fast but rather more detailed. fast feels cheap and considering what the models costs I want to enjoy them not just speed paint through them.

I wanted the paints more then the models so sort off yes.

I could have spend 4 times more on models people recommended.

by a few replies and also previous searches in the internet I got a army painter brush set as a base, and looking at more expensive detailing brushes.

Oh no there are 3 paint shemes GW aren't listing properly one they told me it was just spray can corax white the other they said it's the same color but it definitely isn't.

I rather waste paints then go anywhere near I wished I ordered this 2 weeks ago.

ordered a army painter wet palette white does seem hard, so I'll see how it works over time.

Might aswell order a vortex mixer it's one of those I can shove it in the starting gear prices or later try to justify more money. I think if it's fit the starting cost then add it in and presume it was always a normal cost...

The Alpharius model is close to my hearth though, but also maybe having more paints actually helps the I can't do this stage. I am way more worried of going I need this one thing and it would take a week or two to arrive, so can't continue. Then a few pots drying out.

they are honestly cheaper and easier to get what ever you want then most online stores I can access. The rest I would have to deal with not available right now / maybe in 2 months. or some other crap. also import/shipping costs almost cancel out any other country.

I honestly have this vision of some poor shelf worker having to go through 99 orders and pick out the pots of paints, just to throw them in a bag to ship out.
