The Perth site has links to Austrailian modeling stores.

BTW, you ought to title your topic with the question instead of using a vague, unreleated topic title.

I don't think there is any firm ratio of paint to thinner. The main thing is just that it's supposed to be tinted thinned, not thinned paint. I put just a little dab of oil paint, about the size of very small pea, into a one ounce container of thinner.

Try Southeast hobbies... I'm pretty sure they are a stockist of Mig pigments...

Telling us the state in which you live would be a good idea - may help save you some postage.

Thanks fellas for your help - sorry for the ambiguous details and thread topic - I keep thinking of "Comic Book Guy" off the Simpsons - "Worst Post Everrrr"...

Good result mate!
And the post wasn't dumb; just hard to convey a sense of humour in what you are saying without knowing the person!
Oh, I retract all of this after re-reading you're from Queensland... :-)

Yep, SEH stocks or can get Mig items. Get an order in. If Andrew has to order it will bump the number of items up and might mean mine will come quicker
BTW, I seemed to have missed something as this thread looks like half a conversation so sorry if this is OTT. Hobbyrama on Stafford Rd, Stafford stocks quite few kits, paints etc. Specialist items are hard to come by though but the basics are there. Better than Toowoomba anyway.

Don't worry too much about dumb questions, I'm rather famous for "Dumb Grumpy Questions" :-) Just try to make the topic in line with the question, so those just checking the threads will see the topic of the question.
Also placing in the right forum will get the most answers.
I'm saying all this not to get anyone upset, but it seems the question has disappeared, and all I see are answers! :-)

It is too bad he felt the need to delete his original question. It was not a dumb question in the least bit. I just think he would have been better served if he had used a topic title like "Where to get MIG pigments in Oz?"Don't worry too much about dumb questions, I'm rather famous for "Dumb Grumpy Questions" :-) Just try to make the topic in line with the question, so those just checking the threads will see the topic of the question.

That topic title would have drawn the Aus/NZ members of Armorama who had the right information off the top of their heads. The best I could do was to point him in the direction of the most obvious Austrailian modeling site in hopes there would be some link or advertisement at that site.
A better topic title would also make it easier for someone who is searching the site for the same information months or years from now to get the right info with a simple topic title search.
