Three pochade boxes from one Guerrila Painter Campaign box

 

Guerrilla Painter Campaign Box





I bought this a few years ago but found that it was too heavy for a tripod once the box was loaded with supplies. So, I rarely used it and it sat on a shelve.




After looking at the small pochade boxes that Guerrilla Painter offered, I reasoned that the two storage compartments would make ideal pochade boxes. I removed them from the main palette section and added a tripod mount on each box. 

A cover was created for the palette section, this is now used for pastel field use and storage. The covers on the two pochade boxes act as support for painting surfaces that can be taped or clipped to the covers. Sketch books and journals can be clipped to the covers as well. The covers are held with strong torque hinges and can be lowered to 180 degrees.





Panel/paper holders were added to back of the pochade boxes.
