Paints and storage.

Great organisation there Barry. I can see that working well for aircraft modelling , the more modern the kit subject gets, the more useful it would be.

It looks like a very good way of organising your paints, provided you buy paints for specific use. Much of the paint I buy, though, is for more generic use, which makes it difficult to sort them into neat categories and storage locations.

But the principal still applies. Paints don’t have to be used so specifically.

Mine is known as the 'Fumble Method' - I know it's in there somewhere....

This has been an interesting thread.
So thank you to those of you that posted.
Having mine marked up like I have and in colours has paid off, far easier to put back and the thought the TBC paint committee have received the photos is a step fwd ( at the point of writing this unfortunately I have heard nothing from them ).

True, I meant mostly that it makes it more difficult to sort things neatly into different racks. My method is much like that of Guest: I have drawers that are sorted mostly by brand, as that is usually my main consideration. “This needs to be painted olive drab, and I think the Tamiya one is about the right shade.”
