Hi Gazza!

Thanks for the heads up on the Humbrol paint cancellations. I will have to stock up on some colors. Most of the colors I use are being continued but I did notice a few, that I like, that are not.

I made a couple of shopping trips (to a total of three different shops) for both paints and brushes last week. The photo below shows the results.


As I mentioned last year, Humbrol had stopped making an enamel version of 159 (Khaki Drab) so I picked up a couple bottles of the acrylic version (as well as two bottles of Ammo by Migs SCC15 - their version of the same late WWII British tank colour). I've, so far, painted four 3d printed Land Mattresses with the Humbrol acrylic version and it went on fine. So either I was lucky enough to get a 'good' bottle or Humbrol have upped their game.

The total cost (ignoring public transport fares) came to about £35 - so just under £3 (on average) per item.
