Decided to store them. If I have to take one out, hopefully it won't be from the back bottom row.

HOLY COW!!! :shocked2: Just make sure you label them and leave the labels on the outside so you don't have to take the pile apart to find the one you need ...

I have a very poor labeling system.
As James Garner says in a movie, "I'm an artist. I'm not supposed to be practical."


Speaking of which
I got the helmet to sit right but now the lower chest needs some adjustment.

I don't like putting the helmet on and moving away from it so I use the stick to be sure it doesn't tilt.

Just the unpainted heads and camera.

Here is the new Kolchak heads with a Mego plug added (by a Mego customizer).

I scaled the heads together but as expected, the Skorzeny seemed smaller.

So I changed it
but not by scaling--I just made the hair a bit puffier to give it an illusion of more size and that solved that criticism.

Tim's printing has been getting some praise--even an Etsy review mentioned it.

I finally cleaned up my workroom.
I got all my Testors and Tamiya and Humbrol paints that are still good in a single container (with a few Vallejo ones).
I put most of my 3d prints in a rubbermaid container.
Materials in drawers.
It's all much better organized since I had things in bags and lying all over the place.

Now I just need to remove all the garbage bags piled up in the carport.

I want to do a statue video (of my painted busts which I don't keep in the workroom).
I have my Ceramcoat paints upstairs since I do most of my sculpting work in front of my computer.
Clay sculpting too. My keyboard has a few paint drips.
:)
It is nice I don't have to navigate a floor of plaster debris.
I put the plaster bags in a rubbermaid container so when I do need to pour plaster I don't spill it everywhere.

I have an airbrush too but rarely use it--so I moved the compressor under the main table and put all my clay in containers.
Never had it so organized.
I even have some pipecleaners I got from a hobby store liquidation sale in 1984.

lol yeah I took what I could since I didn't know when I might need it.

Hobby store store closure liquidation sales are especially nice if you can get there early enough to grab the model kits but I missed out so had to go for the crafty stuff.
