I use the range for a limited selection of colours, especially their horse tones for figure painting, preferring to use Vallejo on a wet pallet for the bulk of my painting, but as you see the pots make excellent stands to mount the ships on with a bit of blue tack while working on them.<br /><br />JJcarojonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11826580638291659193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591229843590982581.post-66528203026229220722021-02-20T07:32:12.734-08:002021-02-20T07:32:12.734-08:00Hi Jeremy,

Brig, frigate, 3rd & 1st rates? Lastly what thickness?<br />Thanks in advance, very best wishes,<br />Jeremy warpaintjjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08997436342156047352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591229843590982581.post-43220734085190078812021-02-20T05:04:41.077-08:002021-02-20T05:04:41.077-08:00Unbelievable!
