And during most times in lockdown, i have been doing some painting to de-stress myself!
This is possibly something that could be made by anyone, on their own!

- Acrylic colours (or any other material to colour for finishing)

Colour balls (to make slots in palette for various colours)
Multiple colour tapes
Chart papers
Thin plastic strips
Cardboards
Salt paper (smoothing edges of the plastic balls)
Colour Palette : Base : Draw the Outline(of Any Design) With Pencil, Onto the Cardboard
Colour Palette : Base : Stencil the Main Layer
Colour Palette : Slots : Slice the Plastic Balls, Into Halves Across the Centre
Colour Palette : Slots : With Pencil, Draw Outline of the Plastic Balls Onto the Base

Colour Palette : Adding Eyeballs, Like Structure!
Painting Brush : Making an Additional Thin Brush, for Writing Purpose!
Colour Palette : Adding Additional Support, for Keeping the Base Straight!
For additional support to the base cardboard, i have used a strip cut from an unused plastic hanger.
1. I cut the bottom part of an old cloth hanger.
2. Unsmoothened the strip at edges, so as to glue it with the base cardboard.
Colour Palette : Hollow Cardboard Cylinder, to Hold the Base Cardboard in Hands!
In order to hold the base cardboard in hands, i have used a thin hollow cylinder cardboard structure wrapped with black colour tapes so that it is alike with the base cardboard. Glued it with the base.
Adjusted the hollow cylinder, to a dome like structure to make it fix with the flat base.
This is used to hold the Colour palette with hands.
And Finally!
Here's the jumbo painting brush and colour palette, that could be used for painting purpose!
