Games Workshop Citadel - Pot à Eau

Yes, it is a $12 cup to hold water and it is replacing an old coffee cup. There are a couple of features that made me spring for this: The most important one is that when I am painting in the morning and have a cup of dirty paint water on my desk AND a cup of coffee... I havent actually drank my paint water, but I have reached for it many times It has a notch across the top for you to put a paint brush. This is great for keeping your paint brush from rolling off my desk, hitting my chair and rolling an unreasonable distance. There are some ridges on the side of the cup for getting rid of most of the water after dipping the tip of the brush. There are much bigger ridges on the bottom for cleaning your brush a bit more assertively. (I wouldnt use this on my good brushes, but i typically use a cheap brush to mix paints, to dry brush, to stipple, or to force into those tiny little areas that no one will ever see.... but i feel like i have to paint anyways) Basically, this was a very inexpensive luxury item that makes my life every so slightly easier when painting (and most importantly makes sure I never confuse my paint water for coffee .... because i would never live THAT down).

Useful for my painting projects

love all the grooves for brush pointing, and the rest spot on the top. well done.

its a GW branded paint cup. It has some nice features like ridges that help you clean off your brush but in the end its just a nice branded accessory for a hobbyist who enjoys Games Workshop products.

Works great!

Great for your painting, straightens your brushes well.

Great product for those who paint a lot.

Not just a water pot. Has grooves to clean your brushes.

If you put metallic paint in it, it will suck up those metal bits like a sponge does water and it will gather onto your brush. If you then use any other paints, it will fall into it and now my radiation on my Necrons sparkles like Edward from Twilight I use it because I like representing brands and such but there are more innovative and cooler products on Amazon for way cheaper. You are paying for the name on the cup. It does not hold that much water and needs to be washed constantly, and other pots I have do a better job of taking off the paint on my brushes. This pot has actually ruined 2 of my brushes. It gets 3 stars because it does what it says it does.

Got it for my boyfriend and he loves it!!
