Maelstrom are having a sale at the moment mate. Citadel paints are all about $4.65 with the sale and if you spend more than $25 you'll get it sent to your door free. The exchange rate is pretty good at the moment. If you need the code for the sale its CHRIMBO.
I managed to tip a pot last year and it went all over the curtains $60 later for the curtains I still didn't have a pot of paint Roll Eyes

Edit: I forgot to mention it only takes 3 working days to get here too if they have it in stock.

Gutted! By odd coincidence I managed the same feat with the same colour a couple of months ago. Heartbreaking stuff.

Try painting the lid a bit with the appropriate colour; should help you not to lose 'em: I used to have the same problem. Smiley

If it's a normal GW paint or P3 paint, you can store the pot upside down. It also helps prevent the paint from drying out.

Or build your own Paint Station like I did

 
 Easy & cheap enough to do, just need the right tools for the job.

I've had my eye on some of the GW terrain, they have some decent stuff since the release of planetstrike, even if you're not playing planet strike it would be good fun to add some towers and defenses to the game.

Considering it as Maelstrom games stock it, so it can be obtained for not tooo much money Smiley
