Very nice; I love the paintwork.

Sam Croft
Thanks, I am learning to weather aircraft. I used a light grey oil wash over the Glossy Blue paint. I am very happy with the results.

Marcel Klemmer

Amazing result for 1/144

Nice build, interesting subject. Never even heard of this smal flying boat. Seems very smal to be boasting six engines.

Excellent work! I haven't seen this model built before.

Looking good, mate

gorby
Thanks mate, it's a much nicer place to work so it was worth the effort. It's not so tidy now.

Spanjaard
looking good gorbygould. i have to finish my space now... so i may actually copy some of your ideas!

gorby
Thanks Spanjaard. I'm making minor improvements to the set up as I use the space, but it's much more ergonomically laid out. I also raised the worktop level so that I'm not bending over as much as I used to, and that's much better for my back. Just make sure you have plenty of storage when you do yours. I've filled all the drawers and have still got stuff that needs a home.
The magnetic, under-shelf tool storage works very well so I'd recommend that.

Urban Gardini
I like your improvements of your sanity room...

Gordon Sørensen
Great looking work area, gorby! If only mine was as neat and organized...

gorby
Thanks mates.
That's a good name for the room Urban, although I'm not sure I would be classed as entirely sane.
Gordon: I wish mine was that neat and organised as well! The photos are before any plastic was mangled. I've added another photo on the end to give a more accurate image of what's it's like in use.

Spanjaard
ventilation shaft will certainly be copied 🙂

Urban Gardini
Well, of course you're not able to classify as sane. You're after all a modeller...

gorby
😄 (I assume that is supposed to represent laughing – it looks more like constipation to me).
Spanjaard: The ducting was one of my slightly better ideas. It doesn't get rid of the paint smells completely, but it's much better than it was. Incidentally the stuff I used is called 'Kair System 100 Rectangular'. I bought it from a well known South American river😉 and it was quite a reasonable price - £37 all in. The brackets are overpriced but I managed to do it with just one of them.

Very nice job Gorby, and considering your self-reported aversion to labor a laudable effort indeed. I envy the natural light (my cave is in the basement, so no cigar). Nice work on the tool storage and compressor mounting as well 👍

gorby
Thanks Alec. I had hoped those years of manual labour were behind me, it's not good for your health you know. The compressor mounting works well – the rubber shelf mounting and the rubber mat absorb quite a lot of the vibration, so it sounds much quieter.

Spanjaard
i actually have part of the stuff already... i had a couple of tubes leftover from some crazy idea during the renovation of our place... i just need the ends of it, and i have it almost done. well, i need to connect it to the window, but i have an idea about it 🙂

Mark Sherwood
Nice one. It's given me some ideas. 👍🥸🤘

Doubtingmango
Love the magnetic inverted shelf!!!

Kesa Tiho
Wow, cool to see the cave where all the magic happenes. Also interested to see what the mouse looking build on your desk is (you might have posted about it already but i havent checked your profile so gonna go do that now 👍)

gorby
Thanks all. 🙂
Kesa, that was my SHADO 1 build: Where have all the Aliens gone? Scratching my SHADO. | Album by gorby (1:48)

order, method, organization, a very inspiring place 🫡

Mr D
Set up looking 👍👍 will make a pleasant place to work.
I noticed you have to water trap on your airbrush..... Would you recommend l use my one for spraying Tamiya paints ??
I've just used straight air pipe up to now on my water base acrylics ... mainly Velejo.

gorby
Thanks mates. 🙂
Mr. D, it's a bit odd....when I don't use the trap I have problems with the airbrush, but the trap appears to have never trapped any water. My advice would be - if you don't have any problems, don't change what you're doing.

Mr D
Ok.. thanks 👍
Sometimes l get clogging up with clear, but generally it's ok, l have a Iwata clone airbrush and it's quite reliable most the time.
Think l will have to get better compressor with tank at some point.
Cheers 👍

Rui S
Very Nice and tidy. Great building spot. Well done

gorby
Thanks Rui. 🙂

S B
That is a perfectly organized and well laid out workspace. Nice to see such „projects" here, too! Thanks for sharing! 👍

gorby
Thanks S B. It does work well for me so it was worth all the planning and the work. five years on it's significantly less tidy though. 😳

S B
Oh yes, I see now that your post is from 2019! 😂 But believe me it doesn't need 5 years. I reorganized my workspace in April (this year) and it's already looking pretty messy again! 😂😂🙈

gorby
😄 😄 😄

Nicely done, mate. The Estonian colors suits her very well.
