Gday Andy!
I dont know why, but I love shots of other peoples' work stations. Maybe its because that since my kids were born, ive been working off the kitchen table :(
Cant wait to see progress on your Magach. Oh, your workbench is too neat - and I love the test spray patches on the doorjamb!
Sam
Nice view, Andy - I'm particularly intrigued by the Fishbed J up on the shelf! ;) I've got one of those myself... any idea if someone does a decent set of replacement wheels for that kit?

Nice little spot you got there Andy! Although I am a little concerned about that thing with wings that I see. :)
When you going to start working on the SA-2? I picked one up a few months back for about thirty bucks....couldn't say no to that.
Here's a few shots of my modeling den....

I wander into it every few days and then wander back out......

Hi guys!
You have it nice with your workspace. When able to leave a project to table is a time saver. Of course it can be b***h when all projects stack to table :D
I have very limited space and time to work :( I have to load and unload my modelling project every time so that takes time. I can't earlier that 9pm so that limits modelling time.
Well, this wasn't supposed to sound like a broken record. just letting you know current situ. As my son grows I may get some more modelling time ;)
Good thing about packing a project every night away, is that you have to concentrate to one model at a time.

I thought that i''d post my tragic workbench shots up. As i said, ever since the birth of our twins nearly 4 years ago, ive been working off the kitchen table, and painting in the garage.
Kitchen table with uber funky tablecloth. My wife maintains its there to stop the kids drawing on the table, but i dont know..

And this is the garage, where I do all my painting. The spiders dont seem to mind the paint fumes.

If you look closely you can see a clean and uncluttered area of bench, and my photo set up.
