Portable All-in-One Modular Painting Station with Paint Brush Cleaner and Holders,Wet Paint Palette Tray with Lid for Miniature Painting and Acrylic Paints (Ultra Set)

I originally backed the Krydrufi painting station on Kickstarter. The day that this painting station was available on Amazon, I immediately picked a second one up for my significant other. I was delighted to see that the product available on Amazon was the very same, high-quality painting station I had received as a Kickstarter backer. More details below, but the TLDR is that the Krydrufi painting station is a versatile gem that cannot be recommended highly enough. I am a miniature painter, but it would work just as well for more traditional painters too.PERSONAL IMPRESSIONS:My significant other and I are avid miniature painters and have used a variety of different wet palette over the years. While the Krydrufi is smaller than other pallets I've used, it comes with two palettes for use if needed. When the sponge is saturated, miniature painting papers last a good three hours. I use the trays of paint wells to thin down washes. The lid for these trays has an exceptional seal, meaning that my thinned paints will last entire session and beyond if the lid is sealed in between uses. Each tray is thoughtfully designed so that paint does not move between the wells when the lid is on. The brush holders are also very well done. I've used them to hold everything from size 0 to midsized drybrushes. Both were easily secured, and I appreciate the option to dry brushes tip down at the end of a session.HOW I USE IT:The fact that you have two palettes also this unit ideal for painting with friends. We have an extra painting desk for friends that want to paint and don't have supplies. I have relocated one of the krydrufi wet palettes, and the two water cups to that desk so that we can all paint together. Eventually I will just buy an entire unit to put over there for convenience. My significant other and I used to paint a lot at our local game store pre-pandemic. These compact units have so much in one place, that I hope we can start doing so again without having to haul so many individual items with us. While I do not currently use the painting station for travel, it is used at home to reduce the amount of my desk used for storage after a painting session. The convenience of an all-in-one, compact unit has been so surprisingly useful that it has basically made all my other (individual) previous items duplicative. Definitely not going backPOTENTIAL CONCERNS:Quite honestly, I do not have many of these. I was originally concerned that the snaps on each try would not stand up to regular use. While the product has only been out for a little bit, that hasn't actually turned out to be a problem so far. Krydrufi customer service also addressed this concern by stating that these are made from high quality plastics like you find in car manufacturing. As such they stand up to heat and are made to withstand repeated use. Given the transparency of their company's communication, I fully believe them regarding this. My only other concern was based on the fantastic seal that the wet palette lid has. Without I had concerns that this would promote mold growth, but again this is ultimately not been the case. Krydrufi instructions say to periodically clean he wet palette with alcohol. I have instead chosen to wash the palette and sponge out every week or so with soap or hot water. Between that and adding hydrogen peroxide into my wet palette water, I've had absolutely no mold growth and no weird smells. This is really impressive as I can't say that experience has been replicated in any of the other swedish sponge based palettes I've previously used.KRYDRUFI EXCELLENCE:On Kickstarter I backed the product on a whim as it looked like it would be very handy for travel and I was really impressed by the level of attention-to-detail and customer support from Krydrufi themselves. Even before the Kickstarter finished, the company was taking feedback regarding development of a new wet pallet paper that would work best for miniature paints. They shared paint drying tests, asked questions, and actively involved miniature painters in the process. Quite honestly the sheer quality of customer support, purposeful design, and conscientious development is unequal to anything else I have seen in the miniature painting space. I am excited to see what this small company does as they continue to develop and expand their plans for this painting station.

I’ve recently gotten back into painting miniatures and this product is amazing! It’s handy and it comes with everything you need to get started. It’s super versatile and it’s not very big for any art station. It’s easy to hold and performs perfect! And it looks super sharp on any art station!

This versatile and sturdy paints organizer is a game-changer for painters of all levels. Its space-saving design and modular options make it a must-have for any workspace. The inclusion of multiple brush holders with drip trays and separate water containers adds to its convenience. I greatly appreciate its portability, allowing me to paint anywhere without setup time. The wet paint palette feature keeps paints moist for few weeks, which is fantastic as it prevents wastage. Overall, I highly recommend this product for simplifying the painting process.

I recently purchased this painting station for my custom laser keychain and earring crafting, and it has truly been a game-changer. The compact size of the container is perfect for my limited workspace, allowing me to store it easily when not in use. Despite its small size, it is incredibly versatile and can accommodate a variety of items, including a small cutting mat and knife, thanks to the clever design.One of the biggest benefits I've experienced is the airtight seal, which has saved me from wasting paint. Previously, I would often find my paints dried out before I could use them, especially since I work in small batches. The 60-day freshness :-) ensures that my paints are always ready when I am, saving me time and money.Additionally, the paint holder has been a game-changer for me. It keeps my brushes straight, preventing the dreaded J-hook that occurs when brushes are left in a basket overnight. This has saved me money on brushes and ensures that I always have the right tool for the job.I also want to commend the excellent customer service provided by the seller. When I thought I was missing a part due to packaging, they were incredibly responsive and helpful. Even after I realized my mistake and canceled the request, they still contacted me to ensure that I was happy with my purchase.Overall, I highly recommend this paint station for anyone involved in small-scale laser keychain and earring production. Its compact size, versatility, and airtight seal make it a valuable addition to any workspace. Whether you're a hobbyist or a professional, this paint station is sure to streamline your crafting process.

I love the portability and usability of this. I love painting but with 5 kids can't always sit and paint for as long as I'd like and must often stop when I don't want to. This keeps my expensive model paints wet on between times and makes cleanup super easy. I got the 2 paint trays and 3 paper and sponge sections because I also use other mediums on the go. I am absolutely loving this.

This one item is saving me so much space on a crowded work environment. I’ve been painting since I was 12 almost 40 years. This is a great art organizer that allows me to keep everything. I normally need a hand and ready to go. It appears to be Built sturdily. I love the textured silicone agitators for the brushes. And I am really glad that there are two of them, allowing me to keep soapy water in one for fine cleaning of brushes, while just plain water in the other for quick cleaning between pigments. Well worth your time and money

This is a versatile and user-friendly tool for creators. It includes a paint brush cleaner organiser, brush holder, and a wet palette with a lid, suitable for various types of painting. A great investment for organising art supplies and enhancing the painting process.

All those annoying ads you see about this is true. You didn’t know you needed this until you have it. This helps keep your station tidy and having an all-in-one kit like this is great! You don’t have bulky water pots and a separate tray for a wet palette and the paint trays in two of the trays I’m sure will work great for bigger projects.

UPDATE: Love it so much we ordered a second one for my son for his new commission painting buisness! He uses it every day.I'm an internationally recognized award winning miniature painter. BUT...Im also a dad who has less time to disappear into my studio and so do more and more painting and building at the kitchen table while spending time with the family . This helps keep my kit together in an incredibly well thought out package. Brushes holder, water, place for holding bits, glue & tools and a great wet palette. Let's me clean it up quickly and tuck it away easily. Love this!
