> 3 daySaw several You Tube reviews of wet palattes and decided to make the plunge. Price here was better than my local game store. Very happy with purchase. Ive been using this for about 3 or 4 months now. Still on the first sponge. I take it out, wring out the water, and wash it with Dawn dish soap and rinse well every so often. Paint will seep through the papers if you leave them on there a long time, so dont assume discoloration is mold. It probably isnt. Added a bit of copper wire to prevent that problem, no issues so far. Papers last 3-4 days or more depending on what color paint Im using (some colors seperate more than others). Havent tried making my own papers yet, havent even gone through half what comes with the palette yet but have heard the Army Painter papers are superior than parchment paper cut to size. I kept the plastic box it comes in to store the papers and spare sponge, glad I did! Very happy with this purchase. Superior to the sandwich tupperware box I was using hands down.

> 3 dayPick you up a masterson sta-wet. Save yourself $10, or buy a bunch more replacement sponges for said wet palette. As for this palette, compared to one I made myself out of a plastic sandwich container, paper towels, two pennies, and food grade parchment paper, Id rather use the one I made myself. This palette is very professional-looking. It does not hold or even have a seal. Moisture condensed on the top lid of my palette. The paints I had on it overnight leaked into one another and turned a pale gray. Bought mine at my LGS, so I cant return it, though Ive not asked. Probably will ask em about in-store credit, see if I cant score some more minis out of it. Overall, save your money, go to the dollar store and pick up a nice big sandwich container of some sort, some paper towels and some parchment paper, layer it and get it nice and wet with some distilled or otherwise filtered water, call it good and start painting. Or pick up a masterson sta-wet. Either will provide you with more of a seal than the reviewed palette.

> 3 dayIt’s great for how easy it is to transport, but I will say it barely does anything to help keep your paint useable. It’s nice that it has a paint brush storage compartment as well. Still better than a a couple of the other wet palettes I’ve used.

> 3 dayHad this product recommended to me in a painters class. Turned out to be a great buy. Having all of the extra papers and extra sponge is amazing as well.

> 3 dayHaving read the reviews for this product I think there are a few things that need to be covered. First, the intention of a wet palette like this is NOT to keep your paints fresh indefinitely. It is meant to give you the proper thinning of your paints as you apply them. It can also provide you a perfect area for dynamic color mixing. It will allow you to keep your custom mixes for a period of time with proper storage and care. The size is perfect, the included sponge and parchment paper work well to provide properly thinned paints and to preserve those paints over an extended painting session. If you are using the right paint it will keep them wet and workable for several days......IF you store it properly (lid held on with the elastic band in a cool place). Storing in my house, which I keep at 68 degrees the palette has retained moisture for 4+ days (by then my paints had separated but the palette was still good to go). The brush storage area is a nice bonus and works well with army painter brushes and has an area for normal round handle brushes as well. All in all its a good package, yes you can accomplish the same thing with some parchment paper, paper towels, and any plastic container, but this is a neat clean package that stores well. Its worth the money to me. Ignore the people complaining about the sponge being folded in half for shipping. it has zero impact and you wont even notice it once you wet the sponge for use. Chalk it up to one of those things people complain about for no real reason. Pros: It does the job well Has brush storage built in Solid construction that fits together well Includes two sponges and a lots of parchment paper (enough supplies for a LONG time) Will retain water and save paints overnight for several nights (though there are better wet palettes for 2x the price that can do it better) This is a sweet spot in value for the dollar Cons: You can DIY something that will work every bit as well as this for less than 5 dollars It would not have been hard for them to add a rubber o-ring to the lid which would allow it to keep even more moisture for longer periods of time Though it will stay wet for several days, most paints will suffer pigment separation after a few hours (blame the paint not the palette for that)

Greater than one weekWorked on her last night. She was a ‘cultist’ originally formed with a staff, but having lost it in transit I decided to paint her as a druid. Her clothes colors were from other sets, but the Army Painter Warpaints ‘Tanned Flesh’ was perfect for her face! The sunkissed quality it lends this is so spot on! As but a beginning mini painter, I can already see a long and happy future relationship developing with this paint manufacturer. Thank you!!
