My personal favorite is Tamiya acrylics, and I buy them from Tower Hobbies, Squadron, and Sprue Bros.  Depends on what I need as well, and if each of those places has what I need in stock.

Im with Daywalker in that Squadron and Sprue Brothers are some of the best places, in general, for model kits and supplies. the Customer service is tops at both places. Unfortunatey with paint I am a Gunze sangyo acrylics fan and they are discontinued in the U.S. I buy them from Luckymodel.com in Hong Kong. The prices are downright cheap, but you have to wait a few weeks for the shipment to arrive...which is not good if you didn't plan well (like me!) and are holding up a project for a specific color.

Is there another company that makes spray paint for plastic models some off brand. Like Krylon or Halfords I think they make spray paint. Tamiya and some of the known brands are getting a little expensive.  I don't mind the cost to much but if I can find a better deal who knows just checking things out.
