I use Windsor and Newton oils and water colours. You can find them at any decent art supply store. I think the address for Michaels is www.michaels.com

I buy all my Winsor Newton Oils at Pearl Paint or Michaels. There are varying qualities of Winsor Newton Oil paint and the price range from as low $3.99 for Series 1 and $50.00 for Series 4 etc. I use Series 1 and 2 for my tanks, and I have some Series 4 which are cadmium colors used for figures.

Thats really cool. Thanks for the help I will look at them and decide.

I bought a beginners set of oils (maybe 6 colors) at an art supply store about a hundred years ago, still using them. A little bit goes a long way.

Yup another vote for Michaels. They run a 40% off coupon every week too.

I’ve got two tubes of oil paint…Lamp Black and Yellow Ocher…that I’ve never opened or used along with a can of Odorless Thinner. When I was researching various weathering methods, I picked them up along with various other materials and just never gor around to trying them. I picked mine up at Hobby Lobby for something like $3 a tube and they had a nice selection to choose from.

The fact that I use enamels exclusively has made me wary of the oils and I like the results I’m able to achieve via other methods, so there they sit. [:D}

Very nice, as for myself I just want to try some new method in weathering and thats all.

I would definitely get some suitable thinner, too. I recently bought some, and it works great, and it smells like eucalyptus. Fantastic!
