What about Dullcote?
They'll still have their line of awful enamels in those little rectangular bottles I was using to deface plastic airplane kits when I was 7. They're also into craft paints and materials as well.
Didn't this come up last year? And then some of us actually called Testors and found out that it was only overseas? Is this the same rumor come 'round again or some new rumor?
Just thought I would post a little heads up. We have learned from multiple distributors that Testors is discontinuing the entire Model Master line, paint, tools, everything. Not wanting to add paint to your toilet paper panic buying but if there is a color you particularly need, now is the time to stock up.
Doesn't sound like Facebook gossip. I don't believe Tony would have posted anything he thought was untrue.
I'm hoping this is just Facebook gossip. I actually really like the MM Acryl colors and use them frequently. About 10 years ago I converted to all water based paints and use Badger for most colors but like the Acryl paints for yellows and whites. Polly Scale was by far the best water based paint for light colors, but Acryl is a close second. Badgers colors are good, but are not opaque enough when painting lighter colors without primer.
I have found Tamiya to be absolutely bullet-proof when airbrushed. Sure you'll have to mix to get specific military and railroad colors, but give their white a try if you're out of the other brands.
