This is the view from where I would sit to paint my models. I used to paint in my living room but decided to move into my study room instead after I got that lamp you see the photo. I secured it in a way that I can sway it to my right to add as an overhead light source for photographing my models.
Turning to my right is where my computer and a very basic photography set up is. A piece of blue paper act as the background for my models. The 2 other lamps will be placed of either side of the model for illumination.
From the 1st photo you might notice a small table in the right background. This is where I put most of my unpainted stuff, reference books, Cry Havocs (Rackham monthly publication) & other odds and ends which are related to miniature painting.
Finally the basic stuff which you'll need to get started. The blue can is a primer while the grey can is a matt sealant. Also you see 2 W&N series 7 size 0 & 00, not the miniature ones though as I couldn't get them here, which size 0 is almost the only one I'm using from start to finish. A piece of white tile act as a very nice and steady palette for me to work on. It can be easily clean using water and gentle scraping. Lastly a steady pair of hands and alot of patience and passion is all you need to enjoy this hobby for a long time.
