<\/span>Today’s post is for all the Kato Clayer’s that read this blog. Sue Fisher, who lives in Australia, has sent in another one of her Kato Polyclay color palettes. She calls this one, Rich Metallics<\/em>.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s another original Kato colour palette for you, called Rich Metallics. I wanted to use pearlised or metallic colours this time to tie in with your recent Blend and Switch technique, but I had a hard time avoiding colours with Kato concentrates! In the end I chose a palette with one colour that needs them.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The red in this palette cannot be mixed as a pearlised colour in Kato without the use of Red Concentrate, so if anyone who doesn’t have Red Concentrate wants to use a red with the other colours I’d suggest plain Red straight out of the packet. It will be very close to the intended colour, just not pearlescent. The other four colours are mixed with ordinary Kato and look nice on their own too, so another option is to drop the red for a four-colour palette that is more sophisticated but less bold. (The best option is to get the concentrates, however… they are wonderful!)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
