This is how my current workbench looks, with a lot of mixed paints and internet cables and whatnot. The brush&paint holders are of course DIY. The observant may spot some Revell and Humbrol enamels but now acrylics dominate the landscape. The plastic mixer thing with the cups was a flea market bargain and has proven to be useful - I don't have to mix different shades every time I want to paint.
But there are sad news also: I have sold my soul to the devil and went to the GW shop (the only one in Budapest) - to buy weathering pigments. These are Vallejo stuff though so there is hope my soul will be saved.
The other hobby related acquisitions are: white acrylic paint, superglue, 2 SdKfz 251s from Zvezda and a Revell 1/144 Focke-Wulf A8. Slowly there will be place for the infantry too.
In the meantime I am working on a research and the topic is medieval executioners... some nasty stuff I tell ya.

That's sort of a relief but still I'll duly present a sacrifice to the Modeling Gods.
ReplyDeleteI love to see other peoples work areas always interesting. I shouldn't worry too much about GW, I use the washes all the time!
ReplyDeleteThank you; turning to the Great Evil was a last resort as they're the only store who sell this kind of stuff.
DeleteAh hah! Another Man Divot!! Beautiful work place! It looks like the brother to mine.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Could be more tidy tho.
DeleteThat is a very busy workspace and it looks the part! I'm Monty and I too use GW for my washes. Maybe we can start a 12 step group.
ReplyDeleteI did try to make my own once, honest! (looks at his feet in shame.)
Thanks. That's a pretty good idea. I keep telling myself I won't become addicted.
DeleteI used to have the LOTR stuff GW made, though I don't any more and I can't buy their stuff because it cots so much more than everyone else's. I just use cheap acrylics now, cheap and dirty not the best but they have to do.
ReplyDeleteno worries I think we all have purchased something from them at some point.
Price is a major factor: that's why I buy Zvezda and not PSC; plastics and not metals; and the list goes on. All these comments made me believe my sins will be forgiven.
