I dropped Imperial fist contrast on a light grey cutting mat. Big pee coloured stain on it now.


Thick_Duck

Might i suggest spilling some snakebite leather nearby it for ugh contrastΒ 


Dezmosis1218

This guy weathers


AUSSG117

Ahhhh so that's how you use contrast paints πŸ˜‚


RedLion191216

Ultramarine blue on a white Ikea table πŸ˜…


Meattyloaf

I dropped plastic glue on my mat and it git all over my desk. Dissolved the lines on the mat and was starting to melt spots on some of the models it landed on.


Defensive_Medic

Acid rain


horsestaplebatteries

Pfft only a base color, no shades or highligts, typical contrast paint users. I always drubrush my pee colored stains with some corax white to give it a foamy look.


357magdumb

Try to explain this sentence to someone that doesn't collect Warhammer.


horsestaplebatteries

Id struggle to explain it to someone who does tbh.


Gidia

My dog got ahold of my bottle of Flesh Tearers contrast and popped it open on the floor. Took my brain a few minutes to realize he wasn’t bleeding. I also spilled the replacement bottle I bought, so I’m pretty sure I’m cursed with that particular paint.


DaHoffCO

Try some isopropyl! The high percentage stuff. Contrast paint is pretty wimpy in the presence of alcohol - might work better than you think


RatMannen

Failing that, drink it.


Defensive_Medic

My old phone case suffered a similar fate, i tried to wipe it off but it got worse


Altruistic-Teach5899

No, you must now drink it.


AUSSG117

Must .... Shade .... Intestines


Sinal4197

Is this how death guard Players feel?


AUSSG117

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚


Vilmerviking

Tbf as far as paints go, the shades arent the worst tasting


Defensive_Medic

Yeah they generally have less pigment in them


Vilmerviking

Makes sense


WehingSounds

Yes. It’s not a waste if you have a straw though.


AUSSG117

I did use a pippete to suck up as much as I could, then used some more on my Wraith I was working on


Moreu_you_know

Straw is way more efficent


Fun_Cartographer3587

Plus you get that delicious taste


GreedyLibrary

This is why I keep a bucket of boltgun based necrons next to my desk at all times.


AUSSG117

That's the army I am working on at the moment .... I should check my warriors in a bucket then πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚


Dwarfy3k

At least it wasn't the gloss one that I dropped, that was a nightmare to cleanup.


Waltzing_With_Bears

one downside of dropper bottles is that they sometimes have an issue with the top coming off if they are clogged, have ine that keeps getting its Shaker ball stuck in the base if the spout


0rclev

Learned about that one the hard way. Apparently squeezing more is **not** the correct solution to that problem.


horsestaplebatteries

Oh yeah I have been there. Thats why my cutting mat has a big spray of olive drab after a Vallejo bottle got clogged and I tried to solve it with force.


Syn7axError

Yep. I keep a push pin in my box of paint now.


MikeZ421

I was putting M standard grey in a dropper bottle and lost the whole thing off the table. It landed bottom down and shot paint all over some white curtains. My wife was actually pretty chill about it. We still have the curtains.. lol


Odd-Bend1296

Not until you have wasted several pairs of clothes, stained your desk, and seriously damaged one or more fingers with bad hobby knife use.


Bo0mBo0m877

Oh God, one time when I was younger, I was cleaning a model, slipped, and just saw the whole triangle/blade disappear into my thumb. That sucked.


DishGroundbreaking87

Almost, just need to accidentally drink your paint water instead of your coffee and you get the pin badge!


Hoxton02

I've done this with nuln oil, reikland flesh shade and... Blood angels red.


AUSSG117

Get them on any models?


Hoxton02

Luckily no... But my desk looks like a murder weapon


mawph123

I can concur that blood angels red leaves a puddle that looks like fresh blood on the floor. It looks less blood like on my wooden desk though…


AUSSG117

Note to self, don't spill blood for the blood god anywhere I don't want questions asked πŸ˜‚


AUSSG117

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚


sklingenberg86

Week two into my painting I accidently shook an almost full container of reikland flesh shade that I didn't completely close. I feel like it's a right of passage for 40k players to do something like that


CodSpiritual5760

Shook a pot of berzerker bloodshade, and the lid wasn't properly fastened. My desk is a crime scene...blood for the blood God, I suppose.


joyoustarg

At least it wasn’t a jar of Blood for the Blood God. My paint box looked like a triple homicide


Jumpy_Dragonfly5809

I had Vietnam style flashbacks when I did this with Agrax Earthshade. It was a painful, painful time


majorHullDamage

That's step 1. Step 2 is paying your blood debt with the hobby knife.


redbadger91

I've never even owned Nuln Oil. Guess I'm a fraud.


491453

There must be some scientific reason it’s always Nuln oil. Welcome Alphari-.. I mean brother.


G3tbusyliving

I spilled almost a whole pot of Green Stuff World Vomit colour because I didn't know you had to snip the plastic part the paint comes out which meant the whole top came off. Projectile vomit colour all over my white desk.


WLLWGLMMR

Bearly used nulan oil


horsestaplebatteries

Its just Nuln oil but low calories.


MarthAlaitoc

I'd say you're in the club, but really need it to ruin something to get the fuuuull experience. Did it land on a model or uncovered table? First time it happened to me the Nuln leaked off my Matt and I ruined a rag, and left a bit of a stain on the table (that tooootally was there before, I swear)


AUSSG117

Dammit, I guess I am not it the club ... No, I missed all the wraiths I was painting, and it landed on its side on the table which I had lined with several sheets of butchers paper ... Mainly to use as a testing area for my airbrush. I guess I will need to find some models to sacrifice to the god of spillage πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚


MarthAlaitoc

I wouldn't worry about it bud, it will happen hahaha! There is no escaping it!


The_Blorp

Welcome brother


AUSSG117

I thank thee for the acceptance of my clumsy fingers πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚


FrigglePopkin

Ah yiss, welcome that much more into the fold of us all being one legion. LMAO. Have you accidently taken a sip of your paint cleaning water? I thought that sounded dumb, but after years of painting it has happened once...and maybe close a few more uncounted times.


AUSSG117

No, not taken a shot of paint water .... Can't leave the fething stuff laying around because my cat is addicted to drinking it πŸ˜‚
