Paint Pot Holders

I do not remember if I have already shown these - but a fellow LAF'er lamenting tipping over a pot and spilling half the content made me think that I should share my solution for unstable paintpots.

It is made from a piece of wooden lath, and I made the hole with a paddle drill bit.

Originally I made some of these, because Anna wanted to pant some toy knights, but I have adopted them for my own painting, as I have also sometimes knocked over a pot, with a horrible mess on the pain(t) station as a consequence.

I can heartily recommend such a device, as I do not think I have toppled an open pot while painting, since I started using it.

The grey paint is from a bottle I dropped while placing it in the pot holder, so accidents can still happen, if you have butter fin´gers like me...

Getting Ready for Decals!

Got Micro Set and Micro Sol (and a flat brush for applying the latter) from Frontline Hobby here in Denmark today.

I may try it out on a couple of DreadBall players one of the next days - if I can find the time to do so in between the outdoor chores.

No matter what, I should now be set to get good results when fiddling around with decals, which has always put me off for fear of botching the job...
