Paints (Supposed to have been reply to 'Acrylics vs Enamels')

I tried to only use one brand, Patrick,,,,,I couldn't make it work.

I wound up with buying 451 colors to get 221 matches that I needed, too many paints just weren't the colors they were marketed as.

Me too, my cabinet is full of many brands and types. Before my last cleanup and disposal of old bottles, the count was about 135. Still have over 90, some used much more often, but no clear cut front runner among manufacturers.

Tamiya acrylics are my most used, but MM enamel, Vallejo Air and MM acrylics find their way onto some of my builds, they all seem to have their own strengths and weak points. I do wish I could narrow it down to one brand.

I primarily use MM, only because that is what is most readily available in my area.  I have purchased some Humbrol, Tamiya and Vallejo paints.  I will admit that I do like the Vallejo stuff for hand painting and Tamiya sprays have great pigment and coverage.

I agree.I use Tamiya, Modelmaster, Vallejo, WEM, among many others.
