Hey guys, for any old-time members this is Elmquasmash, just can't remember my password -.- It's been about... 6 months since I last painted and there was another gap of over a year before that so my paint is running a little dry... Any ideas on how to get the paint mixed right again? Most of my paint is vallejo so it's tough getting anything into the tiny 'squeeze-hole' that the paint bottle has.. So if you know of anything better that I can put my paint in for better long-term usage/storage I would greatly appreciate some info on that as well
Re: Trying to start painting again.. Paint 'revival' help ne You can actually wiggle off the tops of the vallejo paints. To bring some paint back from the death, you can try either some matte medium, or plain old water, and shake the hell out of it. If it's just thickened up a bit, IMO you can just use a little water to bring it back.
Re: Trying to start painting again.. Paint 'revival' help ne Another thing that you can try is to make a mixture of water and Jet Dry (Dishwasher spot free drying stuff). It will help with the flow of the paint.
Re: Trying to start painting again.. Paint 'revival' help ne thanks for the heads up guys I'll try some water on a bottle or two first and then see if I need to take a more drastic measure via jetdry or matte
