The Army Painter Wet Palette

★★★★☆ I'm super pleased with the product. This thing had all the stuff that I thought would be in it.I will be using this to paint my miniatures as I do use the Army Painter paints as well so it was I had to get it.Pros:1: Packaged well and clean2: Not damaged3: Helps keep your paints wet for longevityCons:1: No instructions on how to use the product for any 1st timers just getting into using a Wet Palette.2: The soft foam to hold the water came wrapped bent which a lot of people will see as a flaw because they don't have the patients to wait for the bed to work its way out.Over all if your getting into painting like I do with Miniatures this is what you should learn to use as well. Your paints will love you for it as well as your pocket spending on buying new paints to soon. The only reason why I gave 4 out of 5 stars was the lack of how to use a wet palette that's it.Not damaged

★★☆☆☆ I have used a wet pallet for painting miniatures for a few years. I travel a lot so the built in brush storage tray appealed to me. As ut turns out the case itself is the only thing this pallet has going for it.The sponge is terrible and the paper is even worse. This pallet dries out within about an hour of setting it up with the included sponge and paper. I ended up cutting the extra sponges I had for my other wet pallet to fit this case and going back to good old parchment paper.I still really like the case but it is over priced for what you get since tge pallet itself doesn't really work.

★★☆☆☆ I bought this wet palette back in April. My intial impressions and first month of usage would of brought this product 4 stars. The presentation is wonderful, the design is classy. The sponge is a durable and resilient foam. My only out of the box gripe is that the brush holders inside the top compartment can't hold some of the brushes from Army Painter themselves. Anyways, fast forward to today and I'm completely disappointed. This palette eventually no longer kept my paints wet at all and the only way it can is if I stack books on top of the thing while closed. All four corners of the red center insert have WARPED UPWARDS AND NO LONGER SEAL WHEN CLOSED. The included red band, while very nice, is NOT strong enough to keep this case sealed! Considering the design has no latching or snapping components, I question how well this inserts with a big cloth rubber band around it worked to begin with. It never seemed like the red insert fit into the shells very snugly to begin with. A wet palette has ONE job, and the design of this one will cause that job to fail eventually. Something about it needs to be redesigned. Make the center red insert snap into the top and bottom, make it thicker, something. This is inexcusable, and it happened under recommended usage of not keeping the sponge wet with paint inside it 24/7. Granted, plastics warping after a few months likely won't be caught by quality control. But dang, this is a problem that definitely could of been avoided by a better design and reflecting on the current one I'm not surprised it happened. The only reason it's 2 stars instead of 1 is because it's still a pretty nice looking piece, and technically still functional with a stack of books (or a cinder block) on top of it.
