Share your scale modeling workspace

[durangod]

Thought i would share my workspace. I forgot to mention in the video dont toss all your empty ammunition boxes, the plastic bullet carrier makes a great hand tool storage. Also your 9mm and 357 brass fits perfectly in the holes for taller tools to keep them from tipping, and colored markers fit holes perfectly as well. Video below.

I do not have a guided tour or anything but here's a shot taken from my work/computers side of the office.



None of those 4 cars are models, three are die-cast and one plastic, but all commercial built versions just for display.

Great space, appears to be the front half of a 67 mustang in the pic, is that correct?

Models and firearms in the same room now that's a man cave. Where's the mini fridge full of beer.

Meet the "keezer", which is just a kegerator made from a freezer instead of a fridge.



I made this since I was tired of bottling my homebrew. Used 5-gallon "kegs" of the same kind used in soda fountains in the 1970s/80s running through some air/fluid lines to a CO2 tank that did double duty as a carbonator.

Alas I sold it a while back, stopped making and drinking beer and quickly lost about 40 pounds. Do not take that to mean I removed it to not have alcohol and guns together, Instead I put this together using a "medicine cabinet" from Lowes designed for bathrooms...




In the other corner is the simrig, sobriety is required there if doing anything competitive! I have a newer base and wheel than shown, the VR headset is used for driving and flight only. I'd hurt myself or break things (probably both) with any of the standing type VR games.

 

[durangod]

Wow hell yeah now thats a mancave.

Oh my tummy, i can smell the jack from here, drank way too much of that a long time ago. Cant even remember last time i had a snoot full, probably 20 years back.

 

[Jim62]

I knew there had to be more to that man cave. Nice very nice.

I airbrush the bigger sections mostly and usually airbrush the primer on the sprues but the rest is hand painted.

I always brush my figures as it's my favourite part of the build, lot's of watery layers to build up the colour without loosing the details. Pantherman

 

[Edbert]

That Tiffie looks really nice, I've never built one before, trying to decide if I should or just do a Tempest instead.

 

[Motoretrolia]

All I can say is WOW! Well organized and complete. Impressive.

Nothing wrong with that unless your Wife is the opposite. I'm more of a Minimalist mixed w/ OCD, Form follows function, etc. It drives the Wife nuts.
