WIP....Where to start/finish

[Steve Ski]

Ok, here's mine. Humble it may be, but everything is within reach and the right shelf is loaded with tons of war flicks to keep my mind focused. Only problem being, if I ain't seen the movie before the paint begins to dry faster, go figure, lol.

I spend most of the winter in the bunker sniffin paint and gluin my fingers together. Gotta love this Sport!











Cheers, Ski.

How much is actually spent on paints ,brushes ,books and other sundries compared to what is spent on models

Have to admit I've found this thread unusually fascinating seeing how and where other modellers squirrel themselves away to work on their chosen subjects....Brilliant stuff....Kevin

I was saying the same to Steve Drew today.
I've 100+ Vallejo, and probably use 20.

So true...I remember going to the hobbyshop more than once to buy some absolutely indispensable colours..Never been used yet

Here's my hoard of acrylics and inks. Packed in travel boxes as I work in 2 locations. Drives my wife nuts when I hump them back and forth. Many of the Vallejos are 10+ years old. Good shelf life lets you accumulate them over time. I actually use most of them.

Thanks for sharing.

Nice setup Nap. I now know why I've been struggling so far, I don't have 300 brushes to choose from. Five is obviously not enough.

Spotted your AAC presentation, I spent a few years with army aviation myself at Detmold and Wattisham (ex REME).

Cheers,
Billy

Nap, beauty set up but it seems your cat is more out of control than mine... he seems a terror!

Most of my paints are hiding in the trolleys. My real problem is finding a place to put the kits once they're built!

 

[Ron Tamburrini]

Great Man Cave
Everyone seems to have hundreds of paints !! I have 30 tubes of oils and about 20 tins of humbrol and 6 jars of Tamiya and that is it and 10 brushes at the moment of which five are about knackered
