StreetFightingMan Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I never posted a picture of my bench or stash before, so here goes. The bench is in a little side room that doubles as a storage room where my parents keep books and stuff. I'm kind of anti-claustrophobic and love being in a cozy little space, so it works really well for me. The compressor is in my dad's shop, so I airbrush stuff out there, but for building most stuff, space isn't an issue despite the cramped feel. Overall, when I play music on my speakers and I'm getting into a model, I achieve modeling Moksha, haha. The stash is mainly a collection of great deals that I've taken advantage of in high school and college. Other kits in it are where the part of my paycheck goes that doesn't go into savings, lol. Since my other interests and hobbies are not very costly (besides golfing) I justify getting modeling stuff and don't really have any regrets. Sorry about the quality, the pics are off my Samsung phone, not my Canon, so stuff is a little blurry. Also, these are action shots. No effort whatsoever was made to clean up anything, nor were the kits in the stash organized or posed. This is just a quick glimpse of my modeling existence, not a picture-perfect layout for a magazine, haha. If you have any questions about anything you see in the stash or want to see better pics of anything, feel free to ask! And these are the few kits I keep right at the bench because they are either semi-in-progress (the Corsair), are on deck (the Panzer II), or are my motivation to keep working on my current project so that I can move onto cooler things (the Zero). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Superb stash - there's loads I'd want in my collect. D'you know ... I just can't find a Tamiya 1/32 Zero anywhere. I want one to build along side the 1/16th one I'm starting (yup 1/16th). Also I seriously fancy that 1/72 U-Boat (heresy I hear cries - but it's fairly large so I'll build it private). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StreetFightingMan Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 Yeah, the only 1/32 Tamiya Zero I've seen is a built one at my hobby shop. I've seen the 1/48 one (in the last picture) built up a few places and when Squadron had it as their Mystery Deal I had to pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkranias Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 nice stash and work area. brings back very fond memories of my first bench. that A6M3 will be a winner its a great kit (assumption it builds like the A6M2) Scale Hobbyist carries plenty of Tamiya 1:32 kits as well as the A6M2 and A6M5: Scale Hobbyist Tamiya 1:32 Offerings Always, always mark your calendar for Squadron's Black Friday sale. Budget $250 for stuff (kits, after market, consumables) ... fill cart with $500 of stuff and a 50% discount plus free shipping is applied. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StreetFightingMan Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Yeah, I actually was going to get some stuff last Black Friday, but they were sold out of more than half of it, haha. Better luck next time, I guess. Basically, I'm gonna "Eduardize" my stash next Black Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
