I haven't painted anything for a while...6 years so this set would be a good start for me again. I am about to go into my uni exams which will all be done by December so I cant really put aside any time for painting this month.

So I could either buy the set now to start painting in December and risk the paints going dry.
or
Hope I'm able to still buy the set in December.

appreciate any advice..]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1088949.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1088949.page GMT
Then again it doesn't say it's only a limted release.

EDIT: It actually is a limted Release. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1088952.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1088952.page GMT
(Been playing 40k for a year now, and did LOTR:SBG a year before that, and my paints from then hasnt dried out yet.

If you leave the pots sitting around the pigment separates out of the solvent, which might have the chance to evaporate a tiny bit because it floats on top.

Proper stirring gets everything back together. If you do find your paints getting a bit thick, you can add a bit of clean water with Flo-aid, or even some acrylic polymer medium.

By the way, when did they switch over anyway?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1089054.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1089054.page GMT mos. Do you enjoy painting, paint in spurts, will you need all the colors from the paint set?

These are things I'd usually focus on for any purchase really. I buy what I need for paints when I start the unit/ army. IE I have a plan, and try to stick with it. We all fall in painting funks, and for that you need a pick me up.

Maybe go in 50/50 with a friend on the massive paint set. Set up a painting night, and agree to meet 1x per week for a mos, then see where you at. If you do it, and do a unit/squad at a time. You'll probably have a painted army in 2 mos.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1089577.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1089577.page GMT
Greys sound boring but they are surprisingly PITA to mix up every time you want to use one. Same if you want a variety of greens or browns.

Pink doesn't often get used and can be easily mixed.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1090240.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1090240.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1090963.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263861/1090963.page GMT
