Hey everybody! For all you painters out there, do you use Citadel paint exclusively? Are there other brands out there that are better/the same. I have been interested in using different brands such as Testors/Reaper/Vallejo. Thanks in advance for the input!

i have used Vallejo (both Gaming and Modeling lines) almost exclusively for several years now. They have better coverage, bigger bottles and the paint doesn't dry in the bottles.

Only GW paints I still use are the white metallics (bolt gun etc) and washes together with couple of Foundation paints for base coating.

I have heard a lot of very good things about Vallejo, I just have no idea on where to purchase them. Do you have a website or something, can you order direct? Thank you very much for your input!

Also, acrylic vs. enamel paint. I have only ever used enamel paint and was curious about the differences.
