I don’t have an airbrush, I’m just a spray-can man, and today I don’t know what happened but i got WAY too much paint on the barrel of my new M1A2 (I’ve done fine jobs in the past with just a spray can) and there is no fixing it (I got a bit angry and broke the part…[;)]). Does Tamiya special order entire sprues or specific pieces, or will I just have to play Frankenstein with my old M1?
as far as I know they do whole sprues.
Yes, Tamiya sells parts by the sprue. All you do is call their customer service number and place an order. They usually go for about $5 per sprue tree. Check here for more info and the #: http://www.tamiyausa.com/customerservice/index.html
Their mail service is really quick too.
