I've been using amazon.co.uk.

COSE DA ARTISTA Storefront:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=sr_in...qid=1551236027

Airbrush-Superstore Storefront:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?marketpla...A33HYOXR7V9ZRW

Not cheap, but a million times better than hobbynox.

Thank you. I was hoping to find somewhere that sold sets. I used to buy from John Miller but it seems he’s gone down the vinyl sticker route more these days.

Sets are limited, but I've had a few as they are good value. Metallic Pearl and solid colours. There is a florescent one too.

I havnt used createx or any but looking to give it a go. I have read that some people use a clear spray after to protect it. Do you? Or do you just back it with white and that's enough?

I seal my bodies with Plasticote gloss clear sealer.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Plasti-kote...dp/B006XBSNO0/

its a really decent hardwearing and waterproof finish.

I just today received a paint order from SM Designs. Order placed Thursday evening, received Saturday, via 1st class post.
Createx paint selection is best there is in the UK, and prices are the cheapest I've found. Can't recommend more and will be using again.
