Joe's paint-cups by Horror-

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

My airbrush is great. Running out of the particular shade I'm using halfway through a piece is not.
I whipped up these little snap-fit cups to make larger batches of specific shades for re-use and storage. They feature notches for easy opening, and a built-in spout for pouring small amounts of paint my little airbrush cup.
While I wouldn't recommend transporting these in your backpack or purse while full of paint, they keep my colors from drying out and don't seem to leak while sitting on my shelf with the rest of the paint stuff. I've drop tested them full of water and they held up.
This is a TIGHT FIT. Your printer needs to be accurate. I printed the pictured ones at 50% scale and 100% infill. I've found with a couple of them, after I snap them together, I was not able to pull them apart until the next morning. Sorta like the plastic needed time to relax? If you can't seem to snap them together at all, warm them a little bit and they go together perfectly, as long as you don't over do it.
