Games Workshop Citadel - Pot à Eau

Most people will say that this product is dumb, even stupid, but this is so practical, the bottom and sides help cleaning the pain of the brush and the slides help keeping the brushes sharp, it has two small issues, first, its plastic so you obviously cannot see how dirty the water is at a glance, and its a bit small, it doesnt hold as much water as most cups of water or jars. So this solve so many inconveniences I didnt have with a few caveats. Really, a stupidly good product.

What can I say? Its a plastic glass

Ive used many and this is seemingly the best Ive ever found!

Helps clean the brush between different shades and type of color

Works great!

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.

Honestly I didnt think that something that just holds water could be so innovative. Many great features to keep your brushes clean & pointy. Awesome product.

I scoffed when I saw this branded cup at the game store. Then I saw the ridges along the bottom and sides of the cup and the grooves for refining the brush tip and the place molded into the top of the cup to rest the brush. Im used to drawing the brush across a paper towel to form the tip and remove excess water. Using the grooves on the side of the cup, the point is mostly formed and the excess water mostly shed. As a result, drawing the brush across a paper towel only leaves a trace of water, and Im not replacing soggy paper towels every hour. In addition, the ridges on the bottom and sides of the cup help to remove paint by drawing the brush over them (as opposed to simply swirling it around in a glass jar). With less paint held up in the brush, in theory brush life will be extended. The cup is also lightweight and solid. It seems silly to buy a water cup, but the innovations in this one are proving very useful and convenient.

I got this for painting miniatures and so that I wouldn’t have to keep stealing cups from the kitchen. Works great but overpriced.

Works as intended. maybe a little overprice for a mug. But if you just want to use something other than a coffee mug, this is perfect. Has ripples and groves to help clean the brushes. Easy to clean and fits nicely on my work desk.
