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
http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/498392work.jpg
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

All my sandpaper, polish, glue and side cutters, reside here, nothing to mention really

Here are acouple pics of my modeling table... some are of it in use and some are not :D

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.)

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
