been to a couple of hobby shops near home and all they have is water based acrylics. any ideas where I can get some either via mail order or near me in the western suburbs of melb or melb itself?

I find you shops are your best bet but has been a while they have probably all closed down so be kids don't get off there computer phones and xboxes lol

Excellent well done.   and now that you mention it .. i think the pokey little model & jigsaw toy place at highpoint might also have a little paint stand.

You indeed have good taste . I love my Firepower and bought a new CPR playfield for it (still not installed yet though  )

You cant rush these things hey.  Its yours.  Its paid for.   Realistically the longer you leave it the longer it will last so you're being efficient by not doing it yet.  Good show ;-)
