I'm doing a big clean-up on my work room as well as the rest of the house. Thought I would take some before pictures and track my progress as I refurnish my workspace.

Figure storage in the left cabinet and finished terrain pieces in the right cabinet. Casting gets done on the table in the middle with mold storage in the map cabinet below. The side cabinets have roll up doors that help keep the dust out.

My painting desk. Probably better off blurry.

A worktable with storage underneath. Large, difficult projects get stationed here until lost or forgotten about.

What a huge wargame dedicated room!

Here's a post on my blog featuring my desk now and 6 months ago! I hope the changes aren't continuous!

Thanks guys for all of the photo etc of your benches. I'm in the process of getting some more room in my garage to use for storage.
I'll post a few items as I build them.

My workbench. Or at least the progress of it's evolution.

Version 1 - This is how it started.

Version 2 - It evolved a little bit.

Version3 - More paint pots were added and so it had to evolve some more.

Version 3 - This is what it looks like now

Found away to get more room in my work shop, was in BBQ when I saw keyboard slides, bought a set and put them on, also found some one who makes paint racks to suit my small work shop, bought two for my Vallejo paint bottles, for ink's washes and most commonly used colours.

jnr: It's delightful to see small spaces used so efficiently, but I think I'd get claustrophobic in there!

Is that where you spend time between cleaning chimneys?!

On the plus side.... great organisation and a big lamp and window.

Here's my workspace in 2008:

Since then I've noticed I tend to go places to paint, and I get claustrophobic if I'm buttoned up in the office for too many months (yes, months) at a time. My painting has become much more mobile - paint case, working space on the detachable lid, minis and supplies in a pistol case, and two lights - it all fits in a little gardening bag when I want to go to the game store or in-laws' to paint:

Now, the shelves of completed minis (9) and arctic-camo figures (2)...that's another matter.

Just skimmed through this thread and it's made me realise the one thing i hate about the hobby...all the damn clutter.

Doesn't matter how organised i try to be (and you guys too), the workbench and storage is always cluttered.

That goes for the tabletop too...all those dice, markers, tapes, etc. cluttering up the battlefield.

Other than that, there are some pretty sweet set-ups you guys have.

Been out of the game for a while as I had to pack up my stuff and vacate my painting area so that a bunch of plumbers could tear up the floorboards and put in a new heating/water system. Then there was redecorating the room, and then Christmas, and then something else, probably.

But now I'm back, baby! And here's my new layout:

Not very tidy by Teutonic standards, but believe me, that is staggeringly neat for me.

How long before it turns back into this...

About ten, fifteen minutes do you think?

How does the door work

(and no smart arse comment about turing the handle etc

)

cheers

I don't know what's behind that door. And from the strange gurgling noises and scratching sounds I don't want to know.

(It's a regular door that works in the normal way, it just isn't in use. If you opened it you would be see the back of a wardrobe, or possibly Narnia.)

Today I have been swapping from this

to this

A carpenter I am not and although great for Foundry style (I shamelessly copied the Miniaturicum one) I forgot the craft paints are actually wider bottles

It will have to do for now.
