Show us your modeling WORK-BENCH

#1

Post by Greg K. » 28 Dec 2002, 06:51

Ok, I was going to build a new work area to do my modeling, and so I came up with this idea, and thought that it might be cool to show everyone just how messy we modelers are.. :D
or how clean you are.. :(

I'll start it off and let's see how far we get....
P.S. I thought it over and have decided to buy a new table area instead of building one... SORRY
BUT due to my wife wanting her closet back for storage I must do as she says. :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x (just joking) :wink:

well here's my work area, and what I was going to do was to build a complete work area inside this closet. as you can see it needs a lot of cleaning and work... 8O 8O

I'll have my new work area in place in a few days.. I HOPE!!!!
then I'll show you how that came out... :idea:

yeah Dragonman, I know the feeling. My "model table" has so much junk on it I usually just grab the xacto knife, glue, tape and needle files, put paper on the kitchen table and do the basic assembly there. (Not that I think your work area is junky.) Between paints, tools, airbrush, etc., I have to use the table and I don't even want to talk about storage space.....
Cheers, D

wow that place looks great. TV too. I take mine into the TV room and make it there on some newspapers. Probably why mine are so awful. hard to concentrate but hard not to do it in front of TV,
