Games Workshop Showcase Slender New Painting Handle
October 20, 2020 by brennon
Games Workshop has been showing off a strangely erotic image of their upcoming Painting Handle which is a revamped take on the offering we saw hit their webstore not long ago.
Painting Handle // Games Workshop
The original painting handles (available in black and red) were rather chunky and the new handle has been described as easier to handle and designed so that you can reach all the fiddly bits on the miniatures you're painting.
I mean...well, it looks cooler right? Obviously, this did get released to a hell of a lot of jokes on the internet (any surprise there?) but I suppose the proof will be in the pudding. Maybe we'll be able to compare this to the old one to see which is better. You could also just go with Warren's new invention...
It certainly does more or less the same job and without all of that plastic that gets used up in Games Workshop's creation. All joking aside, I do know that painting handles are great and they do make things easier for a lot of people. But, I will leave it up to you folks as to if this new design is going to work for you.
Drop your thoughts below...

Ooh a double add now what one to get ? Ooo decisions decisions.
Okay, not to drastically influence your decision process, but I hear the Warzan Painting Handle comes with a free bottle of wine or mead.
hmmm OTT Mead … with free paint handle.
that would be cool …
I think the new design will be less painful than the old one, certainly, and easier to remove than Warzan’s.
Indeed.
I’m saying it now: that “painthandle” is going to “end up” in places it wasn’t designed for and nurses around the world will have laugh!
With or without the Marine still attached?
I’d guess either a commissar or something slaneesh XD
Knowing the Imperial playerbase,it’ll be the Bandai one.
It still looks like it belongs up your [connection dropped]
Will there be a vibrating version?
The new design looks like it’ll be top heavy and fall over a lot (inverted wine glass anyone?), while the Warzan handle comes from a place where cork trees are skinned and wine bottles emptied and will be too light and fall over a lot as well. Maybe the drunken painter won’t notice as much with the latter.
It’s not in the advert,but @warzan showed off his paimting handle stand as well recently,with space for mobs of mini’s with no fear of them falling over ( unlike the painter themselves if they create their own stock of handles ).
I take it the Warzan version comes in Red, White and Rose versions 🙂
bluetac and an old paint pot does the job
That new one already looks like it will get knocked over much easier. Now you have something perfect to help with those Citadel paint spills. Congrads!
