What happens when your local hobby shop is going out of business?

What happens when your local hobby shop is going out of business? You buy all the paint of course!

Of the main hobby shops in my area, the one with the best paint selection closed last year without me realizing. On Monday the next largest posted on Facebook that they were closing up shop at the end of the month. Seeing that the only other shops within an hour have very limited Tamiya supplies, and zero Model Master Acryl stock, I rushed in and bought what I could. I filled up an entire basket with paint before realizing I was going to make some poor sap go through and individually scan jar after jar after jar after jar. I left far too much paint behind but still ended up with receipts over 7 feet long.

Now beings the process of organization the new haul and what's left of my stocks...

Now that I have supplies for most of my planned 2018 builds, I just need to find some time.
