Looking over my paint rack today, I realised I'm almost as much a paint collector as a figure collector. I probably have around 100 pots and bottles, although several have seen very little use! I have a Vallejo "Old Rose" I needed for the facings of a single Napoleonic regiment & never used again & more pots with various shades of "dirt" that WW2 armies wore than I can believe. Game Colour Leather Brown is used on most figures I seem to paint.Vallejo Steel is another constant paint source. A few questions for the painters here: Roughly how many paints do you own?
Excluding black and white, which colour do you use most?
Which colour gets used least?
Do you mostly use paints straight from the bottle, or do you routinely mix your own shades? |

I have a couple of hundred Humbrol enamel pots (14ml) and the ones I use most are 93 (sand) and 100 (Red-brown) My least used ones are the metallic blues,greens and reds which are for specific thingumajigs. I tend to use them plain so I can reproduce the same or similar figures time after time. |
