ChernayaAkula Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 My workbench mess: This is where I build. When I build. ;) As can be seen, it's also my work and computer desk. So whenever I want to build I have to drag out all the modelling-related stuff and stow it again when I want to use the 'puter. Tedious. To remedy this I'm constructing a dedicated modelling workplace. Found a nice little desk with lots of small drawers. Already got all the bits in place and just need to adapt my airbrush booth. Bought the bits right after X-mas, but couldn't be arsed haven't found the energy to actually go ahead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mingwin Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 are you using your side-opened computer as spray booth? My workbench mess:This is where I build. When I build.

richter111 Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 From what I have heard, a incredibly hard kit to find Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalashnikov-47 Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 From what I have heard, a incredibly hard kit to find You are correct. It has a 1959 copyright date on the box. Mine came from ebay back in the early days of ebay. The one I have is the only one I've seen in person, and, to the best of my knowledge, the kit has appeared only one other time on ebay. Tried to get that one (in better condition than the one I have) but I lost out. I still search on ebay, but it's been a long time. Mine is complete with all the plastic parts, instructions, decals for the eye pupils, and three different colored bags of "fur" to be glued on. Three of the legs, the tail and the ball of yarn have been assembled. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IrishGreek Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 I just was able to move off the kitchen table and have taken a corner up in the attic. Got a relative inexpensive desk and a new chair. It's nice to organize. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unit19 Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 That looks like a great spot. Be nice to be able to start from a bare bones space and finish it as you want. Man, I'd be building in a hidden spray booth and some lighted display cases and... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
D.Lesko Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Hi guys. Here is my work area. I used cheap counter tops from the home repair store and file cabinets. It works really well.

Oroka Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I just was able to move off the kitchen table and have taken a corner up in the attic. Got a relative inexpensive desk and a new chair. It's nice to organize. I have that/ had that exact desk. I gave half away to my brother-in-law and the computer tray half just became my hobby desk 2 days ago! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

D.Lesko Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) Hehe..that's my big goofy lab Chloe. She's 100lbs and just does what she wants. She decided she wanted to sit in on the picture and who am i to tell her otherwise. Love the laser eyes though :) Good one! My spray booth can be seen at the lower left of the pic. That wooden contraption. Laser dog! Charging.......FIRE! :lol: Any more pics of your figures? :wacko: Edited March 1, 2010 by D.Lesko Quote Link to post Share on other sites
D.Lesko Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 "Hmm, what do you do with the crockpot?" I do a lot of figure painting. The figures tend to be metal. I use artist oil paints and they take days to dry but in the crock pot they take a few hours. Throw the figure in on low overnight and the oils will be set by morning. Really helps to move things along. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xavi84 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Hey xavi84 can you post a pic of that Tomcat poster? Thanks. hey Jimz, it's a painting I did two or three years ago for one of my painting classes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CorsairMan Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Here is mine. Tools: first off - I love the airbrush box. Awesome however please please please please please tell me where you got that tool caddy thing in the picture? I desperately need one! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MikeV Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 first off - I love the airbrush box. Awesomehowever please please please please please tell me where you got that tool caddy thing in the picture? I desperately need one! Tool caddy thing? Do you mean the white things holding my tools? I made them my friend. I sat standard 2x4's on their end and bored a hole down into them with a Forstner bit in a small drill press. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CorsairMan Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Excellent idea. Unfortunatly I have no access to a drill press. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
