I've used them. They need primer and clear coat, but they go down very smooth. They level nicely, and even the light colors are opaque, so they cover in fewer coats.

i just happened to be going to hobby lobby today to get a few things so i went and looked, it turns out i seen the vallejo paints there months ago but wasnt familiar with the name and honestly the bottles look like some cheap home made job so i didnt pay much attemntion to them at the time. actually i didnt even notice the name till i looked today its written pretty small.
anyway i bought a couple mostly because you guys give them credit and they have a couple colors i could use, the color selection for model masters sucks. im use to dipping my brush into the bottle or sometimes the lid of my paints though im not exactly certain how these eye drooper looking bottles work without wasting paint by squirting out more than i will need.

Personally, I don't like Tamiya. It takes too long to dry and doesn't seem to be as durable as model masters or Pollyscale. I bought a bottle of Vallejo Gun Metal Gray. I will see how I like it. I've heard nothing but good things about it and it's nice to have more locally available options than just the few Model Masters Acryl colors that Hobby Lobby carries.
