Main picture kindly supplied by Bralle ( https://www.thingiverse.com/bralle/designs ) who also remixed some holders for for Vallejo metal colors and Createx/Faskolor airbrush colors ( https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4295431 ). A friend of mine is into wargaming and wants to organize his paints a little bit better to have them easily accessible and all stored neatly. He saw the design by Black Hussar ( https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2393177 ) which is pretty neat, but the meshes seem a bit broken and after fixing them the paint holder doesn't quite fit the Ikea Skadis Pegboard for some reason. So I stepped in and designed a new one from scratch. The paint holder is sized such that it uses two same-aligned rows of the pegs on the Skadis pegboard (so technically 4 rows), but spacing is left between the holders so that they fit next to each other in a row. I've added versions for 3, 4 and 5 Citadel paint bottles which should make it possible to cover pretty much any situation on the Skadis pegboards. The back side features removeable hooks and securing pegs (for easier printability) which can also be adjusted for height, should you wish to do so. The differences between the regular and "simple" GWPaintHolder are pretty much cosmetic. The simple one has a different back design which makes it use a bit less plastic and thus print a tiny bit faster. If you want to design your own versions, I've added a PDF with blueprints and key measurements as reference material, as well as 'blanks' for easy modification (with the number indicating how many pegs it uses) in STL and STEP formats. If you need more information, different file formats or want me to adjust anything, specific paint bottle support or something else, drop a comment and I'll see what I can do. Obviously you're free to remix as well.   33mm ("GW") Fits Games Workshop / Citadel Paint Bottles Fits nose-down Vallejo dropper bottles and similar with cap diameter less than 23mm 37mm Fits Vallejo Airbrush Colors, 32ml (fit not tested by me personally) Fits Liquitex Acrylic Ink, 30ml (fit not tested by me personally) Fits Createx Airbrush Colors, 60ml (fit not tested by me personally) 25mm Fits Vallejo dropper bottles, standing up Blank For adapting to your own bottle sizes Available for 3, 4 and 5 pegs on the Skadis board Available in STL and STEP file format

I'm a DIY and photography enthusiast who loves to make stuff in his spare time. My DIY interests are pretty diverse, mostly I see something I want to make or a technique I want to learn, then start doing it until I reach a certain level of proficiency / get bored with it and move on. If you're interested in what I have been up to in the past (or right now), just check my flickr, instructables or deviantart accounts, you'll see most of it. Anyway, I think that should be the gist of it. If you have any questions whatsoever, feel free to drop me a message ;) You can find me here of course, as well as on a couple different sites under the same username: Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/cabbitcastle/ Instructables: https://www.instructables.com/member/CabbitCastle Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cabbitcastle DeviantArt: https://www.deviantart.com/cabbitcastle Imgur: https://imgur.com/user/CabbitCastle Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMK104WZiSi2xXwWZguU-vw/ Etsy (basically inactive right now): https://www.etsy.com/shop/CabbitCastle
