Plus it dries up way too quick in the bottle after it?s been open which really sucks and is a waste of money.
I?ll have to give Vallejo a try. Anyone know where to buy it? Online or in a reg store?
Vallejo can be had from Amazon.
I was a Testors guy, too, and haven't had the same experience with Citadel, although I've only used it a bit. On the other hand, I think Vallejo sucks. I can rub it clean if with a thumb.
Army Painter is pretty decent. Not quite as smooth as Vallejo, but a bit more durable.
Tamiya is probably closest to Testors.
