<p>I got tired of testing paint swatches out on scrap paper, so went looking for something to make a more permanent record. Valloric's model that I found was close to what I was looking for, but I made some modifications to improve the functionality, specifically by adding spot for labeling. Additionally I raised up the relief slightly as an aesthetic choice, and created two versions, one which is 5x4 and one which is 5x1</p><p>My personal approach was to paint, ink, and drybrush the larger relief section to have a record of what the color looks like with some basic shading, while the label is simply a few coats of the color otherwise untouched for a record of the ‘pure’ color.&nbsp;</p><p>It is an easy model to print. I would recommend using the variable layer height option to allow for some finer detail in the relief. Also isn't super important, but ironing can make it a bit more aesthetically pleasing.</p>
