Moderator OneBoot Posted May 26, 2019 Author Moderator Share Posted May 26, 2019 It worked flawlessly, nobody suspected a thing. Managed to get some comparison pics of (most) of the paints today. Purples! (most of the) Blues! I forgot Marid blue in the previous pic, so here it is with some of the other blues: Here's one for Grindylow blue, with Tian Xia jade for comparison; Grindylow blue is a turquoise-y blue green: Greens! Pinks/Peach/Red! Mana Waste gray is very close to the discontinued Grel Flesh color (I didn't notice it was turned around until just now, sorry), which makes me super happy cuz I use it all the time! It's a bit less saturated and cooler. Brilliant green is just about a dead ringer for Christmas wreath. It has a bit more blue in it, but it's surpisingly close: Huzzah! --OneBoot :D 9 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said, some of the paints that were provided for this event are not actually new Pathfinder colors (you can tell by the numbers). And Brilliant Green (9227) is just a normal MSP that has been around for awhile. Since I don't have that particular paint, the information is useful, but I thought I would mention it. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they all have the Pathfinder label on them (I can take a picture when I get down there later). What that means I don't know. I will be able to compare the numbers/bottles when I get home.

WhiteWulfe Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Did they have the Pathfinder metallics there too? Also, that area looks like a lot of fun... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oneboot posted pics of all the bottles earlier in the thread. She’ll paint out some sample swatches of the metallics for you later on. Also yep to the fun. Edit: Turns not all the bottles we thought were Paizo paint are actually Paizo paint.

Here's the 3 metallics: From left to right: Polished Silver, Brevoy Copper, New Gold, Polished Silver again lol, with a strip each of Solid white and Solid black underneath for comparison. And tilted to show off the shiny: Any other comparison pics will have to wait until I get home (volunteers get to keep the used paint bottles). Aaaand when I went to snap a pic of the front of the bottles, I discovered that yes some of them are just regular MSP or BONES paints, and now I feel silly. The Brevoy copper is the only new Pathfinder metallic we have here, and it's SUPER pretty! Huzzah! --OneBoot :D 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much going on that’s very photogenic. Lots of people in different rooms sitting at a table gaming. Took pics of a couple of rooms. Its lunchtime right now so not very busy. The second pic is the vendor area. Edited May 26, 2019 by Darsc Zacal 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the end of the day, I had these... Should be finished by the end of the day.

Moderator Darsc Zacal Posted May 27, 2019 Moderator Share Posted May 27, 2019 We’re having a busy last day of the paint and take. It’s almost done. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Darsc Zacal Posted May 28, 2019 Moderator Share Posted May 28, 2019 Meant to post this earlier. OneBoots metallic Mal’Drakar drew a lot of attention from the paint and take attendees. Lots of ooo’ing and awe’ing over the paintwork. And that’s it. Another Reaper paint and take done and put away. Post con letdown already begun now I’m home. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
