Description
I wanted something cute & sweet to hold my Vallejo paints I recently got!! For anyone who hasn't used Vallejo paints yet (if they paint their prints), I highly recommend them. They look so smooth and pretty!! I went to a local hobby store to find these. Online they come in sets, but I wanted cool & warm primaries so I can mix colours myself. Update 9/25: Added a mini version of the holder! Before using these, I was using some cheap chunky craft acrylics, and they were super lumpy!! Vallejo does take longer to paint with since the paint is thin and you have to layer up, but it's totally worth it. You can check out the painting process here (I linked it to a timestamp of when I start painting this). This isn't a promotion for Vallejo, just sharing my love of these paints because they are so awesome!! https://youtu.be/icc4HBZFGPo?t=178 P.S. The top of this model isn't perfectly flat since I wanted a bubbly look, so if you do not print in adaptive layers it may have less gradual layer switches at the top (visible in my pics). I also recommend printing this all in one colour since it is a large model to fit lots of paints and brushes
