Hey guys, what type of portable hobby stations/painting stations have you come across?

I'll have to take pictures, but I mostly paint at work, so I've had plenty of time to devise a portable paint station. I have the lid/palette from the GW Project Box, a 3-section tackle box for my assortment of paints (75 or so different ones, plus metallics and shades and whatnot), a pencil case that holds brushes, clippers, paper towels, green stuff, super glue, knife, and poster tack, a metal lunch box with two layers of foam inserts from the Warhammer 40k GW carrying case (the big grey one) to transport miniatures/bits (it can carry 20 regular infantry models), then my 5 candlestick/cork hybrid painting handles and then some extra space leftover for whatever else you may need. This all fits in the above mentioned 40k carrying case from GW. Throw a strap on it and there you go!

This may not count as an actual station, but all it requires is a hard surface to complete.

I have a tackle box that I use to store all my tools in, paint pots can be laid on their side (organized based on type, etc), and a cutting mat can easily be stored in the lower compartments.

I bring it to friend's, family's, and to GW - just need a spot to set down on and some tap water!

This one looks promising:
