Your skin is amazing. I wish to wear it over my own.

Your parchment paper tip literally changed my life. I opened my pallletttetee and MY PAINTS WERE STILL WET. Although the humidity here in the desert has gone up from 10% to 30% this week so I cannot be sure, but its a world of difference so far and I'm ecstatic. Thanks for making my life that much more moist.

Thumbs up but only if you promise to never do that tongue thing again. Seriously though, great video.

I enjoyed how much the word "moist" was said during this video. 10/10

For the fellow Aussies out there, "Glad baking paper" is the equivalent of parchment paper, sold at woolies and coles.

Welp, that's a sound that'll never leave my mind-ears.

Thank you! I had never heard of this over the last 10 years of struggling to paint minis. I went to the referred tutorial and built my own last night. It is awesome.

I bought that palette today along with some sable brushes at my local art store. Thanks for the tip about the parchment paper!

Couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong with my wet palette, but it seems like I need to make it more... moist

That tongue bro. I've never felt this uncomfortable watching a video🤣And I've delved into some dark places... nevertheless I am here to learn.. so EXCELSIOR!

Thank you, Moisture is key ! You actually detail all the flows i have struggled with and solved them all in a 4 minutes video .... Bravo, bravo ! *clap clap clap*

LOL @ the word "Moist". I like to soak my parchment paper in some hot water before putting it on the sponge. My house stays kinda hot where I paint in the summer, so this avoids the curling and bubbling. Another great vid!

Thanks - my biggest and most frustrating challenge is keeping the paper properly damp and not wrinkled. Helpful advice.

Just found you and I love you. That moist killed me!

Thanks for the help! I have the palette but didn’t know I shouldn’t be using the paper that came with it

Thank you so much for putting this video up man. I love the wet palette I built and it has made painting so much better. Your episodes and sick, keep up the great work!

I happened to get the masterson palette before I saw this video, but ironically I was actually considering starting to use parchment paper rather than the special paper included with the palette. The palette paper is okay, but because I'm putting such small amounts of paint onto it, I felt like the paint was being absorbed somewhat into the paper, so I'm going to try out parchment paper today instead. Thanks for the tips!

Bru, no wonder my paint isn't thined in the palette. I been using the sheets that came with it. I might as well just use a damp paper towel wile I'm at it. Thank goodness I learned about this before I got to deep in the hobby.

Scott please you can make a video or recommend a channel that shows me how to transfer my miniature painting skills from 40k to painting on flat surfaces like traditional painters. Thanks!

I have this exact one, and every single 40k kit comes with a sheet of this paper perfectly sized for it, there's room around the edges and everything. Save those suckers!

This video is exceedingly moist. ...Also, very helpful!

You just got another purchase through your link from a video that was published in 2016 - congrats sir and looking forward to using the palette! I have the Tupperware version and look forward to something without such high walls :)

How do you keep your palette from molding?

glad you added more comedy, great addition

Just got back into modeling and I was looking at various things that were released throughout the years I was absent. This is when I started to see the wet palette thing and didn't know what the hell was going on. At first, I thought it was just a fancy new fad that was just something that is a temporary thing but lets look into it. Now I might have to get one because while I am not a penny pincher when it comes trying to get every little bit of paint out of the bottle but dealing with eye droppers I hate having a clump of paint drying on me while I was trying to paint an army.

Does anyone ever find that too much water wicks through the parchment paper? If so, what's causing that?

God this is 4 years old... still epic 🤟

I tend to use tracing paper in place of parchment paper. I find it works pretty well for my needs.

I made a wet palette with an old tupperware, I could keep my paint ready to use for like 6 months without adding water to the sponge ( at least I rarely did). The tupperware lead prevent the water to evaporate outside the box (or something along those lines).

Having some pretty good results using a plate, 2 x tissues and bond paper from an old notebook. Seems the lads across at Warhammer community use dry pallet and a little water. I know this was a while ago but would be interested in a comparison of all 3. (Probably will level up to baking paper just keep forgetting it when I’m at the grocer).

Hadn't heard of a wet palette. Gonna be needing that. Not for minis, but stuff.

Followed your steps for setting up my wet palette! But when I came back to my paints later the paint had completely thinned, was too watery, and would paint splotchy. But I didn’t overfill the sponge - put just as much as you suggested. Help?

On the next video, "how to wet brush using your tongue". Nice vid mate!.

Great info. Never thought of using these, now I might! Question ... Do these only work for water based paints, i.e. Acrylics and Water colors, or do they work with oils and enamels as well? Keep up the great work! And as I always say ... Have a better day!

Love your videos man. Keep up the great work.

Nice! I've never heard of these. You just earned a subscriber! I'll be building one of these soon to use on my Gundam kits.

Amazing video thanks to which I will have nightmares tonight. :) Great explanation on wetpaletting! A Do Not Miss! :D

When i made a wet palette, the paint i used was disappearing and what was left dryed quickly. Did I do something wrong?

3:09 xD hahahaah

So as I’m new to painting and gonna ask a noob question with the wet pallet do u need to add water to paints to then them or that’s the purpose of the wet pallet??

Great video. Not sure if it's been talked about, but when I'm done painting do I leave the sponge inside the case until the next session? Or do I wring it out, dry it, then put it away?

Great video; thanks for the link to the palette, that's going straight onto my Amazon shopping list.

Thanks for this video! I bought this palette a few years ago, I recall using it once and then put it away when I moved. I've set it up again but I seem to have a little difficulty getting the right saturation. When I used it the first time, paint stayed nice and... moist.... but now it doesn't seem to stay as thin - both during use and when sealed properly overnight. I'm just having trouble with that fine line between "paper dries out too fast" and "paint is too runny".

you said the paper that came with the pallet is for hard body paints so use parchment paper my question is can I use parchment paper for heavy bodied paints? is there any cons to doing this?

Yup....now thats in my head!

I came here to see what those dudes in the New Year's video were so fricking mad about :D

This may seem like an obvious question but i am going to ask it anyway....is it necessary to water down paints, inks, etc. before putting it on a wet palette?

MMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSTTTTTT

Both educating and disturbing in equal measure. Nice video. Thanks.

I got the same pallette as you scott. Now I'm you and there's nothing you can do.

By using the wet palette, do you still need to thin your paints or does the palette do it for you? Btw, awesome videos!

Great vid. I have had trouble getting it to....work....for me, but will try some of these tips.

Could you also make a wet Palette for Lacquer Paints? and if so would you still use water?

Did you fill up your entire kiddie pool for a 2 second gag

I had to stop watching because of the tongue, but I got the general idea.

hmmm 3 years of using wet palette and yet i learned something new

The intro ... Had me lol

So sick of my paints drying in 30 seconds on a plastic palette

I’m struggling with the wet palette. I picked this up and got the parchment paper but no matter what I do the paint separates and breaks up into little beads. I’m trying to find parchment paper that isn’t non stick because I think it’s the non stick thing that’s causing the paint to split and bead up. But unfortunately all parchment paper I find is non stick.

My problem is I am very ocd about painting everything. Every edge has to be straight and the paint not overlapping. Takes SO much time to do so I get burnt out.

Oh gods, the tongue action! The horror!

Bro.. The tongue had me in fits .. Good job XD

I'm very late to this video. The question I have is when using Citadel paints on a wet palette, is it still necessary to add water to the paint as you would on a dry palette? Seems like when I did it thinned the paint way too much; almost to an ink or a wash consistency.

Should I thin my paints if Im using wet palette?

Hi Im new to the hobby. I've had a battle of Macragge starter set for the longest time and i finally decided to ppick it and have a go. I'm absolutely obsessed with this hobby but having a hard time getting my painting game on par with where I'd like it. I have a ton of questions but I'll just try to keep it focused on the wet palette and the base coat. Also, love the videos by the way. Very helpful. Do i need to let my paint sit on the wet palette for a certain amount of time before usiing it? does this make the paint diluted like its supposed to be for a base coat or do i still need to come at it with some extra water to make it the proper consistency and play it by ear? I'm trying to get my base coat to look smooth and i want to get good at with a brush before moving on to base coating with an airbrush. I know that the base coat should be melted ice cream consistency or skim milk and you should do it in layers and not paint over it until dry but its still coming out splotchy. Should i prime with white when i do a lighter base coat like you've experimented with in other videos or, if i primed with black, should i just layer the base coat until it looks the way I want it? Do you have any suggestions of experiments or ways i can practice finding the right consistency? ...alright i guess I failed at keeping the questions to a minimum... i guess for now I'll keep practicing and trying to figure out what works. Love the videos though they've been a great reference and tool!!!

I got a Masterson's sta-wet palette and the sponge is longer than the tray, has this happened to anyone else? Is there any harm in trimming the sponge down?

advice for Wet Pallet mold? repellent and remedy for mold?

Hi There, i'm trying this wet palette! Seems doing well but i tried with a sponge and parchment paper. The next day i found the paint with some dark pigment in it. Is it normal? The dark pigment vanish when i mix the paint with the brush, returning to it's natural color. Maybe it's becouse the sponge is too thin and contain few water in it? It's like the paint separate itself?

Thank. You.

So now I have to remember to keep both my palette, and my girlfriend, moist?

Just doesn't work for me. I bought the one you have and did everything you mentioned and my paints dry out in under 10 minutes.

I have this wet palette, didnt know not to use the paper that came with it. Then again only used it once........ shlpshlpshlsphlspl.....

But what abot actually applying the paint you didnt talk about it

+100 for the intro! Great video, keep it coming (no pun intended)!

Great video - as always. Quick question; do you then add water to your paint once it's on the palette? Or do you consider that once the paint is put on the palette, it's basically ready to be used as is?

I know this is somewhere but do you have link to the Palette? BTW nice video I subbed !

Question: how to you control the amount of paint in your pencil? I also use a wet palette and I find it hard to not overload the pencil as maybe my inks are super diluted. What can I do?

anyone know if you can use these palettes outside of miniature painting, for watercolour?

does the sponge has some kind of antibacterial properties that avoid contamination and cause foul odor?

Mine gets moldy. Do you have this problem? Any suggestions?

Oh no

I love how Micheal's has this thing. But the funny part is that it's $18. **I laugh as my sanity ceases to exist**

Stop with the moist jokes, I feel like I’m watching a ASMR video

I know I'm not supposed to "speak moistly". Sorry everybody only Canadians will get this reference.

That tongue thing was en pointe!

Great video! Does the wet palette have any advantages over adding drying retarder to the paint?

loved the tongue hahaha💦💦💧🌊 *MOIIISSSsssSssTTTT* 💦🍻🥛🍸🥃🍺🍹🍾🍜⛲🚿🌧🚿🌧🌫🌊💧🌊💧💧

Does this take place of having to dilute your paints?

Moist! *slurping sound* Pure nightmare fuel! LOL! :-) Great videos on your channel. Keep 'em coming!

so if im using a wet palette do i still need to thin my paint or does it thin itself from the water on the paper?

Two very important things when you start using a wet palette. Do not use metallic paints and do not use washes. All professional wet palettes come with a mixing palette in addition to them. Use that instead. This is coming from a noob that ruined his sponge not knowing the above tips.

Neat

Hey so I have been trying to use mine i just got and its seems to water down my paint to almost a glaze. Got any advice to stop this or idea why it is happening?

I've been refrigerating my wet palette when I'm not using it. Anyone else do the same?

Link in the description leads to the larger 12x16 inch version O_o

Needs more moist

Can I use paper that is coverd in a type of oil

Moist boi

Great video but the tongue thing just ick!

This vid makes daemonettes wet, huehuehuehhebue
