I have a dedicated painting desk set up with a painting station and two paint racks from HobbyZone on it. As many paints as they hold, there actually aren't enough spots for all the paints and inks I own. A bunch of my stuff sits in a small box on the keyboard tray underneath. As I finish up the GW paints (which I'm not replacing in favour of P3 and Army Painter) those items are moving into the slots in the painting station.



I also have a toolbox with all of my extra paints, another Ott light and extra brushes in it that I can take with me to my local shop or a friend's place should I wish to paint on the go.

In a plastic tool box too : the paints at the bottom and the brushes and tools on the upper part. There are small storage parts on the lid.

Like this one :

I have a very organic storage system that has grown as I have bought paint lines. My original gw and craft paints are on my paintier rack, my Vallejo are in a 45 bottle wooden rack and my foundry and other paints are in RUB plastic containers with home made separators.  My GW washes are with the MIG stuff in my tool chest. Generally very organized but not exactly neat unless I actually finish a project.

I use old spice rack shelves & mail sorter slots that line my painting table.
