I'm getting to really like Vallejo paints. I prefer the Model Color line. I'm looking for the cheapest place to buy them, online. HobbyLobby's selection isn't broad enough and my last lhs does not carry them.

Scalehobbyist.com is my personal go to place... they have the lowest prices around and pretty much offer all the colors I can think of ...shipping is usually quick.

No such luck. It just isn't that big of a past time, here.

I suspected Scalehobbyist was the way to go.

Try scale hobbyist... IF you can find a vendor who sells it cheaper, let me know!

I have also looked around and found that Hobby Lobby is the only hobby store in my area that sells Model Color and at a pretty cheap price of 2.99 a bottle.I have looked at several online stores some of which are mentioned here and find their prices higher than Hobby Lobby and then there is shipping which raises the price higher.

My local Hobby Lobby does not carry the colors I need.

I agree with Brian. In addition, ScaleHobbyist has a very useful search engine, has quick turnaround and provides great customer service.

Hi ya..

Amazon carries them but the shipping is a deal breaker, unless you have Amazon prime which gives you free shipping.. and one seller has free shipping for orders over $35...

Amazon.com is where I order all of mine. Never had an issue and I got large quantities easy and quick.
