I know this is a 2 year old video, but i recently rearranged my hobby room/man cave and I have to admit, creating space and organising makes our hobby far more enjoyable and productive! Nice video man
20 years ago I had a big station where I use to craft my buildings in balsa and painting my minis. Now I have a big room full of stuff that I don't have time to organize... You gave me the push to start reorganizing that room, from the 3D printing area to the pictures table and everything in the middle! :D
Redid my space two weeks ago. It was a blessing and a curse. On one hand I am finally organized, and have way more space, on the other hand, condensing and organizing, I found my pile of shame us much larger than I thought. Too many sprues tucked into weird places and then "out of sight, out of mind".
Use my system--I have two piles of shame: one for unpainted minis and another for minis that need to be built. Your sprues are in a different category!
Harbor Freight sells a long magnet that would fit perfectly on the edge of the shelf right above your nippers. It’s about 18” long and 1” wide. I use one to hold nippers, files, a tool to unclog paint bottles, my citadel mould line remover, etc. Nice job on reorganization!
New subscriber, absolutely love your videos 😄. New to the craft. Would you consider making a video on what paints, air brushes, equipment etc a beginner should get for Gloomhaven. Cheers, Rad
Thanks for becoming a subscriber, Bennie! Have you seen some of my other videos? This is a good one from Jaws of the Lion: th-cam.com/video/b0_pg88Upb8/w-d-xo.html Also, any of my terrain painting tutorials works for Gloomhaven since I use the same color scheme for stones and wood. Here's a good one: th-cam.com/video/zbzPkeEMrV0/w-d-xo.html You do NOT need an airbrush for terrain! Just some rattle cans for priming and craft paints for the rest. Also, I'm assuming you have access to a 3D printer.
As appears to be common with a lot of model makers, you have a vast range of paint shades. Don't folks keep a basic range and mix the shades they want from those anymore - ?
Yes, you can absolutely do that. I used to make shades using acrylic floor polish. Buying the shades and speedpaints are more for convenience than anything else. Technically, you only need five colors to mix all the colors you need but it's paying more for the convenience of not having to mix/make yourself.
Nice, can't wait to set up my paint station in my new craft room, what file is that citadel paint holder? Also look for horizontal paint brush holders to prevent water or paint getting into the ferral.
I’ll be buying some paints relatively soon and therefore wished to inquire whether you have any strongly recommended ones. The first two games to arrive and therefore the first two to be painted will be altar quest and etherfields respectively.
I think the best bang for your buck is Army Painter because you can buy sets for cheaper than most of the other paint sets (Citadel, Vallejo, Reaper, etc.). Also, Army Painter is relatively watery so it won't clog and you don't need to add as much water.
You can't go wrong picking up a starter set from someone. Army Painter is the most affordable, Reaper has a better paint line, probably want to avoid Citadel for price reasons. If price doesn't matter to you, picking up the Pro Acryl paint set would likely make you very happy.
I’ll take a look at base sets from army painter. Will be primarily painting fantasy based miniatures , so I’m guessing a set with lighter colors will be the most appealing. At least altar quest will be a good test subject before I dare paint those etherfields mini’s with a more serious color palette.
@@gaminggeek241 I have decided to go with Vallejo paints after just falling in love with them from these time-lapse videos. Whether i buy them as part of a beginners bundle or buy 6-10 solo paints , we'll see. But that medium-olive paint is definitely coming home with me either way :D Possibly same with the base pigments. He seems to do a lot of painting with the airbrush as well , so maybe give him a watch. Albeit the one i linked was purely painted using the brush. th-cam.com/video/Y6XN76w0YZs/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=AngelGiraldeZ
Those are! I like them a lot--way better than the tinny sound from the monitor and they can get pretty loud too. Not the smallest speakers in the world but the trade-off for deeper sounds makes it worth it. Here's my affiliate link if you are interested: amzn.to/34QhIyv

Just noticed the d20 cabinet handles. What a cool idea!

Absolutely! Being able to leave your hobby station makes it much more likely to get some painting done here and there!

Looks great!

Awesome! I'll have to check it out the next time I am in there. Thanks for the rec!
Looks really good.
Looks great. I recently cleaned up my hobby area as well. Makes it so much more enjoyable.
Yes... but you still need the time to paint the miniatures.

Good job ! Cleaning my station has also been my personnal objectif too :)
It helped motivate me to paint more! Good luck!

@@gaminggeek241 Indeed. Convenience is a point, but @ £3 - 4 or more per paint 'pot', that's an expensive option - ! 😆

@@Littlebean-t2t Yeah, those Etherfields models are fairly complex. I'm looking forward to receiving my copy too!

I'm curious how well this has held up for you?
Nice! Early Spring cleaning i presume?!!...just wanted to know, what kinda 3d Printing do you use?
I have a prusa mk3s and an ender 5. What you see in the video is a flashforge finder but I don't use it much anymore. Might get rid of it.
@@gaminggeek241 i might just buy an Ender3 or better, is the 5 much better than the 3?
Are those Pebble Speakers on the shelf? How do you like them?
Those are! I like them a lot--way better than the tinny sound from the monitor and they can get pretty loud too. Not the smallest speakers in the world but the trade-off for deeper sounds makes it worth it. Here's my affiliate link if you are interested: amzn.to/34QhIyv
What game where you painting up at 10:15 ?
Street Masters from Blacklist Games.
