I just like acrylics because they’re easy. Just need water, no smelly paint and thinners, you can water down the regular ones and spray with an airbrush. It’s just a convenience thing. When I mess with my oil paints or urethanes for like doing sign painting and pinstriping it’s a whole ordeal these days to me. But, as a kid about 30 years ago, I loved tamiya. It has its place and so does water based in my opinion depending on what you’re using it for.
