                        I found a new use for old soda cups. There's no doubt that some of you have done this before, so this pic is for those other guys.

                        I do that too. But for me, because I build in small scale I put the WHOLE TANK on it! Big Smile [:D]

                        Great tip! I hope it helps alot of new modelers. Keep 'em coming!

                        Good tip. You know, for some stupid reason, I've never thought to mount the turret onto something while airbrushing.

                        Great idea I think I will try that with my tank turret.

                        A kitchen turntable is also a great help for painting--the kind intended for storing spices. One of these babies allows you to rotate the part you're painting 360 degrees without ever touching it.

                        You can find turntables at Kitchen Kaboodle and most other places that specialize in kitchen gadgets.

                        A lazy susan is what I use to paint all my kits.
