Games Workshop Citadel - Pot à Eau

Efficient

Previously I was using any cup I found lying around and after seeing some other reviews, I picked this up. Genuinely a well made product. Tapered bottom means bumps cause a splash, rather than a spill. Ridges in the bottom make cleaning brushes easier. Good stuff.

Great product for those who paint a lot.

Im glad I spent the money. Ive used a lot of different & expensive water pots before and was skeptical before giving this a try, but this is the best water pot for acrylic painting Ive ever used. Very well thought design helps painters to clean their brushes thoroughly, particularly the thin brushe shapers molded into the cup.

but love the ribbed sides for cleaning the brush (and the slits to put a point on the brush are a nice addition). Ended up getting a second (one for regular paints, one for metallics).

It gets the job done

I didnt think this would make a big difference but decided to try it. The ridges on the bottom make it easier to get the black and red paint off my brushes. I had to wash my brushes multiple times before they would start to look clean but now its a single or double wash and dry and they look like new (minus the paint on the handle).

Yeah Im a total geek about this kind of thing, but I love having this. There are groves in the bottom of the cup and you can rest a couple brushes across the grooves in the top and plenty in it (if you do that). In the end its just a plastic cup. Only improvement that I would use is if it had vertical rubber notches to hold brushes so they can sit without resting on the bristles.

Yes I used a simple cup before like every other person in this hobby. So why did I pay for an overpriced cup? Because its awesome! The inside has edges that are real good for getting the paint off your brush, also the inlets used to help narrow the bristles are awesome. If you enjoy this hobby of painting miniatures, just buy it, your doing yourself a favor and youll be happy you did.

The ridges on the bottom work well to clean brushes. And the channels on the back work well to squeeze the water out.
