Hey guys and gals,
Post pictures or descriptions of your modelling space. Here is a picture of mine with annotations/descriptions (but only because I got bored).

I have 5 Tamiya spray can, 1 Tamiya Primer, Two Tweezers, 1 Roll of Duct tape, about 36 hand paint jars from Model Masters, Tamiya and Gunze Sangyo. 1 Tamiya Saw and 1 generic hobby knife. 1 thing-o-Elmer's glue.

I split my work area into two areas, painting and assembly. Here's my painting area

28 Tamiya paints, 4 Model Masters, 1 Gunze Sangyo. 3 cans of automotive primer in the background.

12 airbrush mounting sticks made from alligator clips and q-tip sticks, Parafilm M for masking, die-cast Audi TT that I made one day when I got bored.

Here's the assembly room

That needle(suringe[sp]) at the bottom is amazing, i suggest all of you guys, if you don't have one similar, to get one, i mainly use it for getting alchole out of the bottel to thin my paint for airbrushing and conventely, it right in the top of the bottel but wont fall through:). you can use exactly the amount you want to, you can also use it to mix exact amounts of paints together (20% of black to 80%red for ex.)

Haha your modeling table looks exactly like my assembly table before I raided the table downstairs

What kinda Paasche is that? VL? And is that an airbrush holder or a parts holder in the first pic>

Yeah, it's a dual action VL, it's my first airbrush and i must say i like it:)

That funny thing there is a great piece holder when i need to paint something and A) don't want to touch it, or B) let it dry while i paint something else.
I think they sell them at hardware stores and radioshack.

i moved my painting area outside to the garage like i said. the spray cans are off to the right. future mods might be higher walls and even a roof to go on it.http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/378573modpaint.jpg
