I'd like to take a look at other gamers setups! its not usually this messy! But ive been having some work done on my house and have seemed to gain masses of polystyrene/wood/fixings etc... and im a hoarder.. always terrain ideas for that piece of rubbish lol





Told you id collected a bit!!



Some WIP terrain



Well... organised chaos is the term i use

Lets see your places or refuge!!

Behind all of this is a 4'x8' table, but that is covered with lifemess, so no pics of that.

I wish it all was tidier, but it all comes down to space. :(

Also, this isn't my house. This is a workspace.

Nice mate! alot tidier than mine!! ... where i hobby is in my converted garage, not in my house lol... if i left my house like that, the wife would cut them off!!!!

Do you have alot of xp with airbrushes? im looking to get 1 and a compressor but have no clue where to start!

Just starting to move things into my (still incomplete) man cave - nearly 600 sq ft.
I'll have to get some images tonight.

I just bought a house and I'm single. So, in essence, my whole house is now my mancave. However, the basement is being solely dedicated for that purpose. When I get it all nice, I'll post pics.

Since other people are sharing, here's (part of) my workspace:



I don't get much painting done, but then I'm more interested in other aspects of the hobby

my man cave! enjoy

my gaming room has a new friend . hes a cool edition to my gaming room! keeps the wife out!

First for the gaming table.. Ping Pong tables rock! (using a 4x6 GW game mat on it). Haven't played a game in awhile so the table has gotten cluttered.

Then the Mancave. This is actually a small room off the basement.

Close ups of some bits and projects as they lay

LOL wow brotherjulian... mind your own 'sig' (... "I mean purge the unclean!")

Awesome stuff!! Need to expand my realm!!

Oh I love these threads... I've since crafted a new and awesome mancave... lots of pics on my blog: http://atticwars40k.blogspot.com/

Man Cave has a very different meaning than what I thought when I saw this thread title. I am relieved beyond all measure.

Painting table


Gaming table (4'x6')


Work bench


The only downside is that this area is in the basement, so it can be a little cold and damp at certain times of the year. Also, spiders love to make webs in the glassblock window casements and then discard past meals onto my painting area

Some interesting shots in here. I'm currently working on building myself a new studio. There's loads of pictures so I won't post them up here, but check out the last couple of pages on my thread here: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/1590/306818.page

My workspace (far cleaner, in this picture, than it currently is):


Just visible in the bottom left of the image is the corner of one of a pair wire shelves that hold parts boxes, more tools, basing materials, terrain gubbins, etc. My meager collection of fully painted models, along with my gaming books and several unrelated items are on a pair of small bookcases next to those. Directly behind the camera is my computer desk. There's also a closet (off in the corner opposite of the one pictured), in which I store figure cases (containing all of my unpainted models - thought it'd be a motivator, both hiding the daunting sea of gray and knowing that I could only display what I've finished), larger sheet materials, and another pair of plastic chests of drawers containing spray cans, terrain, and other assorted things.

Sadly, the room has a rather awkward shape, due to an oversized closet that houses the laundry machines bumping half of two of the walls in, effectively removing 1/4 of the room. The result is an alcove about 2' too short in either direction to fit a gaming table, if one wants to actually be able to move around it. I've walked around with a tape measure plenty of times, mentally plotting every possible arrangement of desk, workbench, and shelves. It's downright painful, seeing a very reasonable amount of floorspace and finding absolutely no way to practically fit what you want to put in there. Even a 4'x4' for skirmish-level games would impede movement enough to render it un-game-on-able. So, for the time being, the alcove has been annexed by my girlfriend, who "uses" (i.e. wastes) it as inefficiently organized and extremely rarely accessed storage space.

It's not much but it works for me. I've now got a pair of shelves above the desk to give me more space to keep models.
