Check out your local arts or crafts stores (~~firebomb~~ avoid Hobby Lobby). Artist grade paint is going to be superior quality for less money. You can also find Mulliput and Aves Apoxy at a lot of shops. Utrecht, Golden, and Liquitex are all good brands of acrylic paint. And usually shops that carry artist acrylics will also carry oil paints and inks. Windsor Newton and Gamblin are the most common, high quality oils. You can use these to make washes similar to Vallejo's weathering products. Pastels can be ground up to make powder for rust effects. You'll just need something to help bind the powder in place (I use acrylic gel medium).

Tbf I haven’t actually checked to see if the workers called for a boycott. It’s possible they’d be chill with it. Also I don’t speak Spanish lol.

Last I've seen, they've stated "if you are considering not buying any more products until the strike is over, it will be a good way to put pressure on the company".

Source: this guy asked them some questions and got some responses.

Vallejo is a company that makes paints for figurines, for anyone else as confused as me about what to avoid.

I figured if you know you know, especially in c/hobby 😆 there isn’t much chance of the average person accidentally buying one of their products like something on the BDS list lol
