Work in progress Kreoss

My full painting station.

Closeup of the wrist-rest I made so I can get precision and not ruin my back in the process. Hacked together with cheap 2x4 and 2x2 pieces of wood. The half-can of spray Chaos black I used to paint it cost more than the wood (I wasn't going to use it for models any more)

The main section of my painting station: one bay of our garage I've co-opted.

On the floor are my fan and space-heater to make things more tolerable in the summer and winter.

The table contains the wrist and elbow rest I built to help my posture. When I'm doing really detailed work I would rest my wrists against the table for more control and lean over really far. It was killing my back, so I built the rest today. With my elbows on the horizontal black ledge, the edges of my wrists lightly lean against the lintel giving me control without destroying my back.

It also holds my palettes down low where I can refill without looking through my magnifying visor.

I've got two lamps clamped to the edge, each w/ 100W-equivalent "full spectrum" CFL bulbs.

On the right hand side of the table is my Paasche air compressor and Badger Renegade airbrush.

Against the wall are my brushes, small tools, and rinse water.

On the left side of the table is my iPad with reference pictures and articles and a small vice for when I need an extra hand (pinning, usually)

On the first shelf I've got my paints on a stand I hacked together. Unless they came in a dropper bottle, I transferred each into 2oz dropper bottles I bought off eBay, painted the top with the corresponding color then slapped a label on. They're mainly P3 with a set of Citadel metallics thrown in along with a few examples of Vallejo game color. They're grouped by hue families and sorted by ascending brightness and saturation.

On the top shelf I've got stuff I don't use that often, or stuff that doesn't need to be in immediate reach. On the right side are my pigments. In the lazy susan I've got non-acrylic paints: oils & thinners, masking fluid and a lone bottle of Tamiya smoke.

On the left is adhesives, masking tape and a few random bits.

Showing on the side is my main storage shelving with bins.
