I have two paint combinations I use alot (Rakarthflesh/Wych flesh and Khorered/Morunfangbrown) and dont want to have to mix more every time I want to paint. How would I go about making a jar of this "New" paint? Just mix the paint up and put it in an old paint jar? Will that dry out?

Buy bottles or tubs (your preference) and mix them in those. They'll act exactly like other paints in bottles or tubs. For example these on ebay (don't get these specific ones, just an example). You can get empty bottles for 20c each or so, not sure what empty tubs cost.

What sizes? I'm thinking I want to have it either the size of one Vallejo bottle, or two GW jars combined.

Also $13 for 50 is a good deal, right?

Since you're in the US, thewarestore.com has dropper bottles for sale similar to what Vallejo uses on their paints. Might be worth looking into. Perhaps you could also do a wet palette.

I assume you mean the Warstore? This one:http://www.thewarstore.com/product61545.html
Its a nice price, not sure how shipping is, but they'll work nicely. I only have about 9 colors I need anyway.

Yes, exactly what I meant. I believe shipping is usually flat rate, at about $7. So if there's anything else you want to buy off the website and add to your order, it might be worth it.

Sounds similar in price to the packs of bottles I bought, 50 bottles somewhere in the $8-13 range delivered from China to Aus. I bought 2 types, 30ml Vallejo style droppers and 60ml square sided ones. GW paints being 12ml mean 30ml bottles should be good if you're mixing 2 of them.

edit: It's not a dumb question either! (re. the topic title)
