[Woodcarver] Pigment

[Chris Howard]

  Joe,

  Thanks for reply. The pigment I am speaking of is what can be bought at any Hardware where they mix paint, its a very concentrated liquid that from my understanding can be mixed in water or oil based paint.

   Has anyone used or know about pure paint pigment, to mix to use on carvings. I am thinking about experimenting a little, its easy to get and cheap plus great colors.

  Hi Chris,

  Are you talking about powered pigment? I've never worked with that.

  The closest I've worked with pure pigment is soft pastels. My understanding is that a soft pastel is largely paint pigment with just enough binders to hold the stick together.
