Here is a picture posted from a customer who got theirs yesterday:



""Just a quick snap of the awesome paint racks I got of you guys. Second one on a block to raise it up behind second. These are sweet."

That's quite nice putting one behind the other like that. Kind of wish I'd preordered these!

I'm surprised GnG haven't designed some clip-on legs to facilitate this layout!

Make them stackable, so you can have rows of two, three or more by connecting multiple sets together, and Robert is your fathers brother!

That would be how I will place mine when they arrive.
I also suggest a compartment instead of legs to store stuff in.

Yeah,
Got mine today
I have Small crack on the side of one tray I assume from Royal Mail.
But not noticeable and shouldn't effect use.

You can see my work area in these photos.
3x games and gears racks.
I'm using my extended work area while I repaint my forge worlds.
Normally it will just be the bench while I paint figures.


Overall Very Happy with mine.
A little larger than I was expecting but that's a good thing!
Room for expansion!
Much better than the boxes and case I was using.

I second the call for rack height supports.
I made some quickly out of foam core.
Might make something better out of wood later if there is no official product.

Panic...

How could we forget your order!!


Yeah...well...you managed it!

Was away for a few days last week, returned at the weekend to have a red card from the Postie.

Went down to sorting office this afternoon, package only contained one rack.

Oh my I wish I had seen this earlier. I'm looking forward to them being available again, I'm a paint hoarder like you wouldn't believe...probably going to need 6.

You can get the remaining few from these chaps http://www.firestormgames.co.uk/index.php?route=product%2Fcategory&path=270746

Aetherworks in Australia should have some too. Everywhere is sold out. Should be more next year sir. We did not anticipated the demand for these.

Do Vallejo paints have a bit too much room to move around in these? With their diameter being so much smaller than GW's, it seems like the rack could've been a lot narrower for folks planning to use Vallejo only paints.

That said, I also have Minitaire paints and if they fit, I'll be sorely tempted. Have you tried Minitaire paints in them? If not, I can get you a measurement on the diameter of the bottles (I guess if it's less than the GW ones it will fit for sure).

Here's mine, fully loaded.



Hope that gives you chance to judge. The two slightly bigger bottles are the smaller airbrush thinner that Vallejo do, and near 50% wider, but still fit fine.

Received an email this evening, hadn't recovered anything until then, but it's all good, look forward to seeing the second one, as looking at the amount of paint I have, the spare capacity I thought I was getting with the second has gone out of the window! (Which is not to say these are small, I just have a LOT more paint than I thought!)

According to Mr C. Chow who helped develop the Minitaire paints says they do. They are the same as P3 paints in size and dimensions yes??



@Azreal13, one never have enough paint pots!!
