First custom made palette

Friend of a friend ordered this set of 9 colors. I hope she'll like it, took me 3,5 hours to press the set. I should try to get some nice patterned ribbon or something to make them look more professional. One pan contains a lot of pigment, I was surprised at the amount I was able to squeeze into them.

Price for the full palette is 415 to 450 kr (ca 27-29 EUR) depending on the "difficulty" of a pigment. Some of these buggers are a tad difficult to press. 35 kr per color and the palette itself cost me almost 100 kr with all the duties and taxes...

  2. I've only mixed a couple of colors myself, these are straight micas with press base and some additional Zinc Stearate. I'm still learning how to get the stuff pressed so that it stays pressed
