[Guest]

Nice one Martin. Just one more picture to come, we need the mug shot. Nearly got one in the first shot but hey, not good enough :laughing: The bike and sidecar are coming on nicely.Just look at that CB 750 right at the bottom of the pile, unloved and gathering dust.....I really ought to take it in just to care for it ;-)

Mug shot to come i promise. Yep the bike and sidecar getting there, bloody decorating getting in the way big time at the mo...gotta keep the better half happy though, worth it in the long run!!!!

That CB 750 may be at the bottom of the pile....but its near the top of the to do list :-)

Nice little Man cave you got there Martin. Those steel Paper cabinets are really usefull arnt they I too have one and was a bit miffed to find out that my Vallejo paints are to tall to fit the draws!!!Nice stash too. A few things there I fancy. That Zundap under the counter for one.

Well all we need now is a mugshot so we all can see who you are!§§1

Show us your modelling workspace

This must have been done on here before but i cant find it?

Myself and my girlfriend turned our spare room into a crafting/hobby room, i make my model kits and sort out my rc cars etc and she make handmade cards etc.

There are a few airguns and replicas on display in there but they are lega and leaglly owned too:busted_red::beer:

This shows my model making area with all my vallejo paints (ive got all the model airs but only a third of the model colours, i think im addited to them), my brushes tools etc etc and you can just see my airbrush compressor underneath the worktop, its a bit messy on the shelves as i had just had to move some stuff around.

Got a 1/72 spitfire on the go at the moment once its done ill get some pics up.

Next bit along and its where i airbrush, goona get myself a proper booth with extractor in the next few weeks so that will be sat where the crappy shelf thing is and that will be replaced with a deeper version of the one i made for the paints. Airbrush wise ive got a badger 200 for general work and just bought a harder and steenback evo 2 in 1.

Above the middle are my 2 air rifles a rapid mk2 in .20 and my .177 weihrauch hw97k

Next bit along again and now at my rc bit, below the shelves is my toolbox, with shock and diff oils etc etc on the shelf below, on the main shelves we have a hobao hyper 7, vs rs tank, my highly modded lama v4, a tamiya chassis rs200, and my pride and joy an xray t2 running brushless and lipo which is stupidly fast, its paint in tamiya lame flake paint with has flecks of gold purple blue etc in it and looks superb. Its all carbon fibre and alloy so looks great inside too

Hope i hav'nt bored you all

As you can see, we do have a thread for this and I have moved your very impressive workspace into it. That is the best collection of paints I have seen outside a catalogue, very nice.

[Guest]

Cheers graham i did look, but not hard enough it would seem, thanks for moving my post.

[Guest]

No probs, and maybe it was not the most obvious title to be looking for lol.

That's very neat and tidy. Good to see I'm not the only one with a mug full of paint brushes too!

Cheers

Ok, this is me enjoying a nice cuppa after just finishing the oakleaf camo on mi Kursk Germans. Essentially this bedroom is my shed, my little sanctuary. There's a lot more shelves teeming with stuff but I think we're only interested in seeing 'the mugs behind the words'. So here I am looking like some kind of receding, model making sumo!

Great pic paul, btw. that camo must be a nightmare to paint!!!!

[Guest]

Good pic Paul...now get ya backside onto the facebook site running in conjunction lol :-) PS...i hope younever had to make that cuppa yourself and leave the modelling station for to long :-)

[Guest]

Very tidy again, must be me that is the only scruff on the forum... Must be nice to have that window light, all my work is one in a corner away from the window supplemented by a really good desk lamp. What mor could a chap ask for than a neat workbench, plenty of light and a mug of tea while contemplating the next stage or even the next build.

Another thing I have noticed is the wonderful array of paint racks you all seem to have! Mine are all over the place apart from a few in a box

[tr1ckey66]

I've only really just got started on facebook, and to be honest I don't know what the hell I'm doing. I went on today and was bombarded with half a dozen people all with different conversations all communicating differently - chat, conversation and on 'the wall'. Eeee, it's not like when I worra lad, if ya fancied a chat ye'd just shout owa fence and 'ave a chinwag like!

ps. Getting up to make a cuppa helps the knees from seizing when you've been modelling a few hours!

Tony, the camo's ok the first time but when you've got 5 more of the bl@@dy things it's a bit of a chore!

Cheerio

SWMBO has started to suggest that I need another shed when the kids playhouse has been moved onto the garden patio. New model shed or is it a new home including the teasmaid.

Tony..

[tr1ckey66]

Graham, you've not seen the rest of the room!

Don't know if you noticed the modelling tray, but that's quite a good idea if you fancy moving about a bit without having to pack up everything. I'm not claiming that as my own idea I read it somewhere a few years back. It's good if you fancy say, putting together individual link tracks in front of the telly!

Cheers

Dave (Gurn) would love that, he thinks individual link tracks are the best thing since sliced bananas on toast........

I am quite lucky in that I have the workbench (my computer desk) in the living room so I can keep up with Eastenders, Strictly and X-Factor while modelling (did I say lucky????). I just use the shed for spraying and storing some of the stuff. I would like a separate room though, probably have to see if they let me have one in the Old Folks Home when I end up there.....
