Product Information

Modeling Paint Workstation for all Major Paint Types Modeling Paint Workstation is an ideal mobile “home base” for all your miniature painting and model kit building needs This doesn’t apply to everyone, but for those who make money from their hobbies, “time is money”. If you save time doing things that aren’t impacting your work, then you’re losing financially. Efficiency leads to increased profits, and without sacrificing quality. Maybe a hobby workstation is best investment you make in your miniature painting and modeling hobby or business? Staying organized. A modeling or painting workstation can help make your miniature hobby more enjoyable (and productive). The Army Painter Model Paint Hobby Station The Army Painter Model Paint Hobby Station is a popular hobby workstation for painting miniatures

Things like folding paint organizer cases or boxes, or drawers with magnetic clasps help make a hobby workstation more convenient for the traveler, or simply someone who wants to move their workspace around the home, e.g., kitchen to bedroom. Modular workstation for scale model hobbies and miniature painting with carry handles for easy portability Some portable hobby paint stations have built-in lights, like this one or this paint workstation case. But, I find these lighting systems to be subpar, either too dim or narrow for most miniature hobby and painting work. I suggest getting a dedicated, high quality lamp for your workspace. There are great portable lights made for miniature painting and modeling arts, too. Portability At first look I was very excited to see a design that carefully stored all the tender devices I use in modeling, be it sable brushes or files. The top two spots seem to be designed for the readily sold basing kits by Citadel, my WH40k kit fit in one of those perfectly. The other I intend to fill up with other larger materials that got leftover from the specialized compartments. Other than that, I followed the example set in the ad video when moving into this box.

Mobile, compact table footprint with vertical shelving with ample space for secure paint and tool storage Before I commit to the box here’s a few last shots to compare the previous box and the workstation I used up till now: The Citadel Hobby Project Box is another popular paint base station for hobbyist looking for a self-contained system. The Citadel Hobby Project Box is designed especially for use with Citadel Games Workshop brand model paint pots. It is built with very durable ABS plastic and will safely store and transport Citadel paints, brushes and tools. The project box closes securely with firm clasps on either side. Will your portable hobby station handle the higher temperatures of being left in a car on a sunny day? Do you live in a humid environment where a paint station made of wood can warp? Metal travel organizers are the best kind of portable hobby units for travelers who use a variety of transportation modes, e.g., cars, planes. Price

The Citadel Project Box is exactly what the name says: a project box. If you’re looking for an all-time solution to all your storage needs (something like a station to hold all heavy duty items like drills, basing cork etc), then this is not a good product for you. I certainly could not store every single item I had mashed inside the Battleforce box into the Project Box. This tool would work well if you want to move a few miniatures or some sub-assemblies that you need to work on to another location (like I did with the airbrush booth I had with my buddy in the past), and frankly nothing more. So first make up your mind about what you want to do with it. It still works for me as I wanted to downgrade from the large station I have to a smaller one. The The Army Painter Model Paint Hobby Station is a very popular miniature painting station for wargaming hobbyists. This hobby project workstation is perfect for organizing your miniature paints and tools. All your paintbrushes and other supplies are within easy reach.

This is perfect for someone who has limited desk space or wants a dedicated and mobile setup (i.e., a hybrid workstation). The shelves and drawers are modular and you can changes these out depending on your needs. Regretfully the assembled box does not firmly hold all the essential items I have put in. I either have to make a little room so that the warps on the sides and the corners do not appear or I have to contend with this. I’m still mixed on the quality of the material as it seems sturdy as the plastic in the Citadel carrying case but does bend when force is applied from the inside. Better bend than break of course but since the visual aspect is mostly what you pay for the product it’s disheartening to see that the little flaws here and there stand out so visibly. Otherwise just go get an art box readily available from most craft stores for a much better price.
