Howdy,

Having had my mind prompted by another thread, I was thinking of getting some of the Vallejo paints rather than carry on purchasing the rather expensive GW ones. Can any of you UK based Dakkites point me in the way of a reliable website that sells these and ships to UK (or even better is based here)

Ta,
