Can't find it now but I could have sworn there was a tutorial showing how to turn GW boxes into decent figure cases for next to nothing.

I use one predator box to keep my instruction sheets in, in case I wind up needing them. Other than that, spraying on, carrying minis when I'm going to paint them, that kind of thing.

1 particular box is holding empty sprue until I find a good use for it (not making terrain yet, I'll do that after my armies are painted).

Another box is my primary transportation for spraying bare models (prime and basecoat, occasional airbrushing)

And, now that I think of it, the last is now destined for becoming an airbrush stencil. I'll cut it out, varnish it, resulting in a fairly durable stencil for airbrushing

Otherwise, they act as a crappy footrest under my station...

Why is it that only those who have never fought in a battle are so eager to be in one?

The big ones hold leftover sprues and some bitz.....the rest get fed to the recycle monster

We're talking standard old GW boxes here?




You might be seeing something in the PaM section sometime this week.

I often use the bottoms of the boxes for priming or I spray them black and use them for photography.
