Grumpy Old Orc

I do get rather envious as I browse the endless stream of Warhammer pictures that just happened to display the owners lovely, permanent, paint station as well as delicious models. I can’t help but be human and think, rather bitterly, ‘Smug gits!’ as I begin setting up, taking over the dining table and going through the long process of getting everything out, again! I especially love the way they have all their paints set out neatly before on perfect shelves. I realise that this is not the way most of us have to work. I am not alone in my regular set up routine. This is my work in progress tray…

But how do I store it all when it is not a work in progress? Some 11 years ago I did an article, on this very blog, about storage cases for my guys. By the way all five of those cases are still in use holding my collection of “Old World” Warhammer. Anyway, as I was pouring over my old friends one day, yes I like to sit and look over my old models sometimes, I was struck by a thought. These nifty little cases are just about the right size to hold   Warhammer/Citadel paint pots. So turning to good old Amazon I bought another one. By the way they have gone up by about 50% in the intervening years.

Sadly, they are no good, as is, for Two Thin Coats or Army Painter* etc. But if you have a large collection of Warhammer Paints you might like to try out this idea.

*Different inlays are available.
