Really… I had no idea what ivory was, always nice to be taught something new.
Where did I put that ebony.
Probably near the irony.
More great tips in this one; definitely some colour choices I certainly wouldn’t have considered for making ‘black’ armour.
I notice that most of your paints are dropper bottles which makes it easy to pour them onto the palette. Sadly I don’t any paints like that. Is there a good way to extract paint from a flip-top bottle (P3 / GW) without using my brush as a scoop?
Thanks !
As for your question, if you buy affordable drop bottles from the Internet, you can readily transfer paint to them by pouring the paint carefully. Funnels don’t help, as the only thing they do is mostly waste paint.
Using the OTHER end of a brush as a scoop ensures less loss of paint, especially if it’s thick.
Patience is key !
Better yet, buy some more pots. It’s not that expensive… Although I personnally don’t always use drop bottles. All my P3 paints (I love them just as much as Vallejo !) are in traditional pots, for example.
