Games Workshop Changing its Paint?

Games Workshop really has a hard time going anywhere without creating a  new rumor. This mornings rumor is about GW taking a look at a new company to produce its paints.

It is nice to hear that along the number scale, our paints are not be listed in the single digits. Please remember to take all rumors with a gain of salt.

So i got a phone call from my father today and he wanted to know what the name of that game was i had sunk tons of money into and who made it.

I told him it was warhammer 40k by games workshop.

He then asked if they were based out of England.

yeah

My father works for a chemical plant in Michigan and one of the things they do is make paints pigments. Super high quality paint. He had just had some super long meeting yesterday with people from GW for a bid. i guess about making some 50 odd colors of level 42 paints for them to be put in small containers.

the level is how high of quality it is based on a scale of 1-50. 1 being painted with mud and 50 being the paint that is used to restore priceless works of art.
