Where the subject of cost really starts to get interesting, is when you are expecting to do a lot of model painting, as with most products, the greater the volume you buy, the cheaper it becomes, and larger bottles or model-specific paint-sets can nearly half the cost of buying paint. This is great if you are likely to be painting a lot of models sharing the same colour groups, for example, military vehicles, but, for one-off projects or if any future models are likely to require different colours or shades, it's probably best to stick to smaller tins to avoid wastage and keep costs down.
