I've just moved to the US and my GW paints didn't make it through the move with me. So I guess now is a good time to move to a different company if they make better paints.

Recommendations?

i found that Valleho (sp?) paints work really well! mostly because they come in dropper bottles, so easy to mix em!

I've heard only good things about Vallejo, but I would kind of like a local supplier and I can't find anyone who stocks them in my area.

How do the Reaper paints compare?

Reaper paints have very minor differences from GW paints. Unless you're a master painter, you won't notice any differences, I certainly don't!

big fan of P3 if you're going to thin the paints down; they got liquid pigments so it doesn't get patchy like GW.
