Thirty-nine bucks seems like a lot to pay for something that anyone, with even just a minimum of talent could accomplish with some regular paints and pigments. After reading about scale effects, distances, natural/artificial light, fading, etc., why do manufacturers continue to try to sell us expensive stuff that's really not needed?

I have to agree, with Doug. I do have some washes and filters, bought to see how they operate.

...why do manufacturers continue to try to sell us expensive stuff that's really not needed?


1. $39??? Where did you come up with that? With today's exchange rate, it is $17 with VAT. You did not confuse the set number of "CS39" with the price, did you?

2. Not to be critical but not all modelers have the "minimum of talent" or imagination to mix and create, and want a set of (fill in effect here). "Why do manufacturers continue to try to sell us...?" Because there is a demand for it.
