How much are they? I don't do much paint customizations, and so I have been holding off geting premium stuff due to cost. However, because I don't do much paint jobs, one bottle will probably last me for a long enought time to make it cost-effective

Professional Question for you WXC: when you use Tamiya or other premium paints, about how many coats does it take for the color to hold on the figure or part? I use whatever acrylic paint pain I can get from Walmart, and it comes out toohtpaste thick from the tube.
I thin the paint out with water, but, I probably thin it out too much (I figure it's easier to put on more coats, than to fix something that has too much paint) because when I apply my paint onto the figure, it little more than runny colored water. The figure eventually becomes the color I want after multiple coats, but because of the runniness of the paint I get alot of stray marks and it is hard to do detail work since the paint tends to go all over the place. Case in point is this Roadblock I did: I got the pants tan like I wanted, but, as you can see some of the tan got onto the knee pads and boots

You want top layers to be the consistency of skim milk, almost see through on the palet but not quite. base coats should be solid paint, but thin and even. Consistency of whole milk.
