Well wonder no longer as I've done all the work for you.

I already had a full set of GW paints which I've been very pleased with, I paint free hand with GW and airbrush with Vallejo Model Air. Anyway, as I want a full set of the new paints, but don;t want to throw away an otherwise perfectly good set of paints that have the old names, here is a list of all the new paints as well as links to them in the store so you can buy them / order / think about it.

I'd really appreciate any feedback on the article, I want to make sure I've got everything right and haven;t duplicated or missed things out. Look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Small kick to garner and feedback on the factual accuracy of the post, always interested to see what people think - cheers!

Buy the new set, donate your old ones to the Aerethancouldalwaysusemorepaint.com charity site. I'll see that they go to a good home that will care for them properly with retardant so they don't dry out.

Essentially, because the new paints are an entirely new formula you will if you wanted to be really anal about it you would in fact replace all the paints that you currently have and rebuy the entire range.

However, I would suggest simply painting with the colours that you have, looking over the new and replacing as you go or purchasing new colours that fill a niche for you.
