Have the sand mud set. Think they work pretty good in my opinion too...
The pastels that Rodders are referring to are from art supply stores and a couple of brands are Rembrandt and AS. They are a artists' soft pastel pure pigment in a stick like a crayon but in many shade gradients, so you can often get the spot on colour you need.

I use mig powders but recently bought the Tamiya set B and the mud and snow stick, just getting round to trying them. A wee warning with artist's pastels, just make sure that you ensure that you do not buy the ones that are oil based as they do not work like the chalk type. I found this to my detriment a number of years ago

John, the supplied sponge applicator is 'pants' at best... Use a conventional wide flat brush to good effect. Same as pigment powders, be careful handling after application
