The Army Painter has some hobby hotness hitting store shelves in just a few months. Check out their new wet palette system!
If you’ve been in the hobby for a minute, you’ve probably heard of The Army Painter. These guys have all sorts of incredibly useful painting bundles, hobby supplies and more. And next, they’ll be adding a wet palette to their arsenal of tools.
The Army Painter Wet Palette: $24.99 (Pre-Order For DEC)
The wet palette not only comes with everything you need to crack it open and get to work. But it also comes with 50 spare sheets. You can get hundreds of hobby hours on this box set. The best part is, you’ll know none of your paints are going to waste.
So what’s so good about a wet palette?
If this is your first time hearing about something called a wet palette, they’re essentially designed to keep your paints from drying. If you use any kind of dry palette while you paint, you’ll know about 30-50% gets wasted as it dries and clings to the surface. However, wet palettes keep the paint sitting on a porous/wet surface that keeps them from drying.
The Army Painter’s wet palette is going to be completely mobile and easy to fit in your hobby go-bag. What’s even cooler about this wet palette is that it’s also coming with a place to store your brushes! If space is extremely limited, you can pack everything but the paint all into one thin case!
