Painting Mixing Pots

Picture 6now and then  just sitting there  doing every day normal things like eating breakfast at the local dinner Bam!!
I see some thing and my brain see things in another light.
Eating breakfast at the local dinner fixing up my coffee I empty a creamer in my coffee as I look at the little creamer cup mind goes back to the tattoo's I have gotten and watching them being done … if you haven’t had or seen one being done they have thimble sized cups to put the ink in.  Then my brain rushed me to wasting paint by mixing it on a plastic plate and not having any real way  to cover and or save the paint I  just mix for large batches. I could use empty paint pots or bottles ( new to the hobby don’t have any empty's) .Here is what I came up with the little creamer cups you get at most dinners or restaurants. With that being said I use folk art craft  paints (a dollar for 2 oz) they tend to be thick so they need to be thinned so this make a perfect way to make batches of a color for me little Saran Wrap and it stays good that for a while.

On my workbench

 PR806  
What I have on my workbench this week.
Tail of for gamer 500 point list painting still in progress as I have gone from my own chapter to Crimson Fist chapter which has put me behind on finishing that this month. The landspeeder storm is almost finished I am working on the detail painting and how to magnetize the scouts so I can also put them on bases and not look so awful .  I received my Rhino I am starting to  work on that as well.
