Citadel Paint Contrast cap painting jig

thingiverse

When working with Citadel Contrast paints, I struggled to envision how they would appear on a painted surface. That's when it clicked: apply a base layer of the recommended primer to the cap of each paint pot and then apply the paint to that. This simple trick makes this task effortless! Just locate the embossed "UP" marking and position it level on top of the paint, then spray away. Once completely dry, liberally apply the contrast paint. That's all there is to it! This technique works with all Citadel paints, so you can use it to see what colors look like using their spray-on base coats, but I'm unsure if it would be useful for my requirements. If you find other uses for this method, feel free to share them in the comments!
