Schmincke Mussini Opaque White hardly qualifies as affordable, but in my opinion it's so superior, in every way, to any other white on the market, it's well worth the extra bucks.
fww.

Make it yourself, very easy, get linseed oil, titanium dioxide and lithopone, 30 or 40 %. Mix 10-15% titan with the rest lithopone and as much oil as you need to get a nice consistency. Use a putty knife to get the lumps out: finished!

Have you tried Windsor and Newtons WINTON range? - cheaper than others but still very good quality. Their Titanium White is very good.
