They look great and you've done a stellar job on them. As far as Citadel paint pots go: you're absolutely right, they're utter shit and always have been. They could change them like everyone wants, but then you would buy less paint since you wouldn't have to replace them as often.The Angry Piperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09929451913231828086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720801445504663403.post-87816911642130383152022-06-20T20:40:02.428-04:002022-06-20T20:40:02.428-04:00Cheers, Matthew, and the Citadel pots drive me up ...Cheers, Matthew, and the Citadel pots drive me up the bloody wall!Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08624491160014232874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720801445504663403.post-78853944565958877932022-06-20T20:39:27.186-04:002022-06-20T20:39:27.186-04:00Thanks, Roger!
