Hi!

I was just being curious, and wondering what your workstation (or wherever you create your hordes of Chaos Dwarfs!(and/or other armies! :slight_smile: ) look like.

I will post pics of my heap of junk which covers it up once my camera is chargedā€¦ :slight_smile:

Thanks

This is where the magic happens:



Lots of Halfling WIPs, but there even are some Hobgoblin Wolfboys and Chaos Dwarfs in thereā€¦ somewhereā€¦

I thought we already had a thread for this? Granted, its a few years old by now, but still. My workbench hasnā€™t changed. Still looks chaotic and messy.

G.2:

Here is mine. Just for the record, it is not always that clean. I cleaned it up for the photo.



Here are a couple of things to note.

1. The wooden shelf,Ā Ā is a CD tower, with the cd shelves removed. I bought in a thrift shop for a few dollars - I think it was $5.

2. The white cube on the top shelf, on the left, is a clock. It has a count-down timer, which I have set to 30 minutes. I usually paint in 30 minute blocks. Before I had the clock, I painted up until 2.00am and I didnā€™t even know.

3. The bottle with the bright green liquid in it, its on the top shelf on the right, contains dishwashing liquid. I put a few drops in my water cup. It helps clean my brushes, and also helps in diluting the paint as it breaks down the surface tension in the paint.

4. The small square boxes on the bottom shelf, contain w&n inks. I bought these back in the 80s, when there were no GW inks or Vallejo in

ks.

5. The blue drawers were purchased to keep all the little things neat and tidy.

6. The small shelf next to the blue drawers, is CD holder, which I use for the ā€˜works in progressā€™. This one was found during an office clean-out.

7. The paint bottles are on there side for 2 reasons. First, I can clearly see the colour I want. Secondly, they are easier to shake the pigment back together with the liquid as the are both ā€œlongwaysā€ along the bottle. My paints are predominantly Vallejo.

8. You can see my basing material, upper level of shelf, on extreme left.

theforgefather:

I could never leave that many boxes unopened! :slight_smile:

Vogon:

Hereā€™s mine.



Itā€™s in the lounge so has to be broken down when not in use but the missus and I have spent many an evening with the West Wing on DVD playing with me painting and her cross stitching in our happy little home.

P.S. G.2 youā€™re sick! That is probably the most disturbing picture of a work station Iā€™ve seen you need to get help :wink:

Thommy H:

The dining table, which we never use for dining unless we have people over, so itā€™s pretty much a permanent painting area. Being a grown up is awesome.

Galladorn:

I am very jealous of many of these workstations. I have been renovating the house since Christmas. In about a month or two Iā€™ll post my new and improved Galladorn-paint-O-rama.
