Yes to both. The pigment particles tend to settle. And as Chrispy mentioned, its better to have pigment rather than binding fluid. Only thw GW\'s are kept upright, due to pissy bottle design. But I do shake all my paints anyways, just some of the vallejo bottles can problematic. I also put small glass beads in there too to help agitate the mix.
My husband keeps that in his pants.
Peace!

On the wall is a big picture of Cyril\'s nurgle lord.
If any of you happens to spend holidays/weekend in Paris, there\'s a store you can see lots of Cyril\'s stuff...

Since a picture is worth a thousand words...
Unless you use the wrong picture, then you are 1k words in the hole.
Anyways, here are some pictures of my current workspace.
Painting Space
Storage Space
Display Case
Funny story about the display case, a friend of mine who knows a guy who has a jewlery shop picked this up for me for $50. When he was telling me about it, I thought it was going to be a small plexiglass counter top display case.. this thing is a monster, and all glass (not fun to lug to the second floor)
I\'ve also since mounted some silverware trays on the wayy to act as racks to hold things I\'m working on.

I\'m not that nosey

I\'m a little bit embarrassed to show this but here\'s my work bench:

and another one view:
http://www.pbase.com/image/18880751
Many WIP\'s on that desk.
I am able to do most of my painting away from the desk (mostly when I\'m at work!!)
Do I get the prize for the messiest desk??

big red- that IS messy!! mines pretty bad though. the difference is i spread my stuff throughout the house! i do all my painting at home, in taunton when i come back at the weekends. my old man made me a large worksurface when he put flooring in the loft - bless him. so i work up there and can make all the mess i want!!
i do all my prepping/sculpting etc downstairs and my bedroom is a tip as is the area surrounding my seat in the dining room - so i can watch tv at the same time. all my scenery stuff i do outside in the garage where all the big tools are - mostly my own but i borrow a few from my dad.
trouble is i\'m moving permanently to cardiff now to a shared house and i don\'t think that there\'s anywhere i can paint - i\'m too messy. and i think that the grils would have a problem if i started spilling paint on the carpet. gonna have to do some serious thinking. maybe buy a big ol\' dustsheet and double that up - i can roll it away then. hmm???

Hey...that\'s more like it!!!
That\'s the kiddie! A proper painting desk! Blood stains, teeth marks the works...
Clearly the domain of a tortured artistic soul with more WIPS than bondage parlour....
SaxonAngel take note...lol

That\'s why most of my stuff is still in boxes, hidden away.
- plus there\'s \"No Girls allowed in the room\" policy unless they know the Secret Password - and it changes constantly!! (beer, as a bribe, has been known to weaken my resolve)
The \"major pain in the butt\" is that I have to pack up my room because we\'re about to renovate/extend and the present hobby room will become an ensuite.
I have already put dibbs on one of the new rooms to be built as my NEW hobby room.
Hopefully it will be slightly more organised when it\'s all finished.
Have I touched a nerve here...?
Nomis, I like routers, I have got a nice shiny Bosch one myself and more bits than you can shake a stick at, I am just amazed that there appears to be about half a dozen magazines in the UK entirely devoted to routing. There is no \'Drill Monthly\', \'What Saw?\' or \'Practical Hammerer\' out there to my knowledge, so what is it about the common-or-garden router that can generate such a market for magazines?
Needless to say I shan\'t be cancelling any of my subscriptions to Playboy, Viz,White Dwarf or Harbinger in order to find outlol
