I like the Xtracolor because they are smooth and glossy. If the WEM paints are the same then I don't see much point in switching. I think the x816 is fine but I'm not a fanatic about colour accuracy to be honest since weathering tends to make every colour look the same.

I am not a huge fan of acrylics because I've had poor experiences before, mostly due to my own blunders. I may try the Gunze paints as I hear they're great.

Paul.
