Nothing at Tokyu Hands? You've got to be kidding.

Well, there's a great art supplies store called Central Gazai near Sakai / Oasis 21. They should have all that kind of thing. They also stock a lot of interesting scenery and scratchbuilding materials on the top floor, mainly for architectural model building (I think), but it should come in hand for miniature terrain and basing too.

Any chance of more accurate directions? That sounds like a shop worth paying a visit too. :D
Cheers.

Walk/bicycle north from Oasis 21 (Sakae subway station) along the road beside Central Park. Three blocks past Hisayaodori intersection/subway station is a side street with a Coco and a building on the corner called "Sanyo Housing" with a big green 'S' for a logo. Turn right, and it's the third or so building on your left. The signs on the building should make it fairly obvious.

This Google Maps link might work too:

The Vallejo carrying store also carries paint on primer. The name escapes me right now.

They are up the block from Joshin

An evil grin slowly forms on Tenorikuma's face as he realizes people will blindly follow whatever directions he gives them…

Really? I got a giant tub of Black Gesso at Tokyu Hands at Nagoya Station just a few months ago - it was kind of hard to find, though, I had to ask the shop staff.
