Tiny paint tubes


otterine

While searching for some suitable minis for the Studio, I ran across an amazing tutorial by Carol at true2scale using the metal wrapped from wine bottles. She provides paint labels, a box template and a painting for her tutorial. I printed my paint labels on Avery label paper to make it a little easier to work with, but I still used some tacky glue to keep the labels secure. I think I made mine a little smaller than the ones she did, so instead of adding beads for caps I dipped the tapered tips into black paint.

I think I might have been a little rough with the tiny tubes, because they look like they've been squeezed before, not fresh out of the packaging. I rather like that, though...looks more realistic when they all vary a little. I bought the tray at The 3 Blind Mice show specifically for the paint tubes.
