The Army Painter Hydropack Bundle Stay Wet Palette for Acrylic Painting - Acrylic Paint Palette, 50 Pcs Wet Palette Paper, and 2 Wet Pallet Sponges

Comes with an extra pad and plenty of extra papers. It was a bit smaller than I thought it would be. But I actually like it better! So much more convient for my hobbying table.

Works well however, if you are trying to save your paint for days it will dry up.

It kinda small and doesnt seem to keep my paints wet for that long. The paintbrush holder is a bit too short for standard brushes, and they dont hold onto the brushes at all.

Excellent aesthetically, but lukewarm design effort. Dont get me wrong, it works as a wet palette but leaves a couple things to be desired. First, the palette doesnt seal. You read that correctly...it doesnt seal. Its held closed with an elastic strap. Not a problem, but it has no rubberized seal to keep the water from rapidly evaporating and the paint from rapidly drying out. Somewhat of an easy fix: stretch a piece of plastic wrap over the paint/wet chamber before closing the top and strapping it shut. The question is...why should I have to? Bargain store plastic ware can achieve an almost airtight seal on a sandwich box at a cost of pennies. Why not here?? Second, the brush holders, conveniently located inside the palette itself, dont hold brushes in place; unless, of course, they are the Army Painter triangle-handled brushes, and even then mine slip and slide. Not cool, especially if I want to securely carry my W&N #7s. Easy fix: stick a piece of soft foam across the inside of the lid. But theres that nagging question again, Why should I have to? Positives? Yep. Looks cool! When in use, functions great as a wet palette. Great size. Easy to use. Ill continue to use it, but it sure could use a couple of upgrades.

I bought this wet palette back in April. My intial impressions and first month of usage would of brought this product 4 stars. The presentation is wonderful, the design is classy. The sponge is a durable and resilient foam. My only out of the box gripe is that the brush holders inside the top compartment cant hold some of the brushes from Army Painter themselves. Anyways, fast forward to today and Im completely disappointed. This palette eventually no longer kept my paints wet at all and the only way it can is if I stack books on top of the thing while closed. All four corners of the red center insert have WARPED UPWARDS AND NO LONGER SEAL WHEN CLOSED. The included red band, while very nice, is NOT strong enough to keep this case sealed! Considering the design has no latching or snapping components, I question how well this inserts with a big cloth rubber band around it worked to begin with. It never seemed like the red insert fit into the shells very snugly to begin with. A wet palette has ONE job, and the design of this one will cause that job to fail eventually. Something about it needs to be redesigned. Make the center red insert snap into the top and bottom, make it thicker, something. This is inexcusable, and it happened under recommended usage of not keeping the sponge wet with paint inside it 24/7. Granted, plastics warping after a few months likely wont be caught by quality control. But dang, this is a problem that definitely could of been avoided by a better design and reflecting on the current one Im not surprised it happened. The only reason its 2 stars instead of 1 is because its still a pretty nice looking piece, and technically still functional with a stack of books (or a cinder block) on top of it.

If you have a basic understanding of painting and some experience this wet pallet makes a HUGE difference. Put some dabs of paint colors you want to use long the top of the pallet and drag them into each other to blend. They come out silky smooth (currently using vallejo and citadel paints)

excellent is a great wet palette.

The paints dry quickly and it is impossible to hold and clean. If you are a beginner painter like me, do not get this product.

Great

It’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.
