EvilJames Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 What is this "organization" you speek of? I'm afraid I'm unfamilier with the concept. All of my paints are kept in a tackle box that barely holds them all and then I rummage through it looking for the colors I think I might have. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I chose to go with digital organization using Evernote: https://www.evernote.com/pub/aaronbkilleen/ReaperPaints#st=p&n=65899955-e9cd-4c79-920f-3f7ab0b27e5e I have many things organized this way: movies, board games, minis (each manufacturer has their own notebook), Blogs to follow, Tutorials, Video Games, Comics, Books, etc. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can it function on its own — sans web? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can it function on its own — sans web? It can be used offline, but I am unsure of what features work via the paid option and which don't. I use it heavily for note-taking in meetings and appointments (especially to share note as a guardian of my father with other family members), so paid was a no-brainer.

prophetic_joe Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I plan to organize them by triads once I get a couple more paints to round out some of them. Right now though, even without adding, I still have way too many paints and far too little space. Here's my work area. Most of it is DIY but the new large paint rack is from iron heart artisans. It's pretty darn nice for $20 and hold 60 MSPs. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissMelons Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 But but, where's the color coordination?!?! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prophetic_joe Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 But but, where's the color coordination?!?! Just got the rack and threw the paints in last night. If you really want crazy, until then I just had them dumped on the floor. I have some more paints coming and then they will get organized into their triads. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can't seem to find a decent price in Canada (remember that shipping and a lower Canadian dollar value makes for pricey differences).

But I can't seem to find a decent price in Canada (remember that shipping and a lower Canadian dollar value makes for pricey differences). They have an ebay account and a website. On 360 right now so finding the site and linking you isn't available but their ebay does say they ship to Canada. It costs $20 US and $6.95 to ship in the states I also saw a blog where a guy made something pretty similar out of 2 by 4 boards using a 1 inch Forstner bit to drill holes. Thought about doing that but decided to be lazy instead. dndlead.com/Painting/Paints.htm otherwise it seems like the ones to buy are pretty spendy after shipping from Germany, Australia and Poland. I really wanted the Ultimate Paint Rack from Massive Voodoo but it is super expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
