iDz Bowl's Custom's Workshop Mayhem Customs

[iDzBowl]

Ok, so I did a little cleaning and I started taking some pictures of my Custom's Workshop. Here we go...

First picture - My painting, sculpting, cutting, and part hacking area. My "Chop Shop"

Second picture - A close up of the right hand side of my "Chop Shop". You will see I have a large parts bin on the far right. There are drawers dedicated to every part of the Hasboro body. There are also accessories, weapons, masks, and helmets in there. I show my Tamiya, Model Masters, and Citadel paints on the black shelf to the left of the parts bin. I also have to alligator clipped "model's helpers" in the middle in front of my paint brushes and current projects.

Ok, time for a third picture! This is the left hand side of my "Chop Shop". This picture includes my epoxies, styrene, decals, and clay/Sculpey (and sculpting tools). Also, pictures on the wall represent past projects. Oh yeah, there are a few characters hanging around, posing for the pic!

Onto my fourth picture (bored yet?). This picture includes where I do my photo editing and printing. I also have a stash of junk that use for customs and dios (all kinds of plastic, foam, and glass). Over to the left you can see where I start to pull the victims for the custom slaughter! Oh yeah, I pack my b/s/t stuff over there to, right next to my laptop.

Last picture, for now...

Just an extended view of customs in the waiting... Dying to get out of their plastic bubbles!

Very nice. I always like to see how people have there desks set up. Also what is that color wheel in the second picture used for? and where do you get one?

That is a color wheel, for mixing/blending paint. I got it at JoAnn Fabrics for like $3.99. It helps with major colors, especially if you don't have any knowledge of mixing paints. To me, it's just o.k., it doesn't go into enough depth to actually give me the colors I want anymore. It was worth the couple dollars though, at least it will help you lighten and darken colors without turning them brown every time.

Right next to those were the "Model Helpers" from Harbor Freight. Those two items were the best investment I've made so far. They have to readjustable arms with alligator clips on them, they also come with a magnifying glass. It's great for holding parts while I'm painting them, plus the magnifying glass is extremely useful.
