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

Helps keep the paints usable for an extended period of time.

Great to save your colors for about 48hrs so you can come back to a project where you left off. Tip 1: Keep on a level surface when storing. It states this in instructions. If not, due to water, colors will run inside. Tip 2: I put a black dot of paint, a dot of color of choice, and a dot of white, spaced out on a single row. I repeat for each color. Then you can blend the black and color to create a dark shade that’s perfect and again with the color and white for a lighter shade that’s perfect. The water helps them blend great and smooth. Paint a dark shade on figure first, then the normal shade on more risen areas that would catch light, finally the light shade for hard edges. Then get a very watery mix off the edge of your main color and paint over the whole area to lightly tint area and blend all the shades. Do this for each color/section. Works for me. Price is a little steep but worth it for the long run if you will painting a lot in the future.

Pick 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.

itll keep paints from drying out!! YES!!

... is good!

Easy to use! Perfect for anyone who loves to paint!

I’ve loved this so far. New to painting and I feel it gives me extended time to work with my paints as I learn. Nice quality of life improvement for the process.

Great item, it seems like good value too

Absurdly useful. Holds equipment (brushes, bluetack, etc.) and retains mixed paint which is the coolest thing. If you get a good color going, not only does it stay workable for days, but its easy to mix more- so easy! I thought painting would be a nightmare but its insanely satisfying and this is a big part of it!

This was really cool and I was excited for it. However it only holds their brushes. You can’t put your own brushes in the case
