I bought a bunch of trays with lids that are used to store screws and nails. They're about 5cm deep with loads of compartments. Works pretty well for models that aren't too large.How do people store their minis? Not for display, just to... take up as little space as possible. I need to organize this mass I've acquired.
EDIT: And to be clear, I'm not talking about transportation. While it might be a nice bonus, I'm not too concerned about that.
I've got a fair few of the Wilko organisers which are a nice size for Space Marine sized minis, stack nicely too and are clear so you can tell what in them.How do people store their minis? Not for display, just to... take up as little space as possible. I need to organize this mass I've acquired.

I got them in a hardware shop pretty cheap
Cool! Just the sort of thing I was looking for. Thanks!I've got a fair few of the Wilko organisers which are a nice size for Space Marine sized minis, stack nicely too and are clear so you can tell what in them.

They work well, but I'm sure any screw or nail organisers should do the job. I also generally keep any start collecting box or the like to store any bigger infantry models. tanks are still a mystery on how to store them best although I do have a set of plastic desk draws on my work desk which holds some of the bigger models well.
SillyEskimo one day you will post that mega picture of EVERY ZOMBICIDE MINIATURE IN THE KNOWN UNIVERSE painted and it will be glorious.
Honestly if you're going to paint it anyway you could just glue that leg back and the paint will probably hide the seam. At worst, use a little green stuff, but I doubt that'd be necessary.
Damn, that is a mega nice version of that Noise Marine. Great job. I'm working on him myself (making him a goth metal version to go with my sombre Death Guard army) but I doubt I will do as good a job as yours.

I'm super happy with how it turned out. My first project at the new space was to clean and prime these big boys, my nicest minis.
I think I'm going to switch to white primer when this can runs out, grey is fine and all but it can be hard to see missed spots. I found some old Citadel white primer but it came back cloudy on the sprue test so I just ordered a new can. I've found Rustoleum to be very good, and they're about £5 cheaper than Citadel.
I've always really liked the Slaughterpriest model.
I also use Rustoleum as a primer and think it is some of the best. It becomes very tough and adhesive after it cures for 72 hours. A helpful thing I discovered is a brand of primer by Badger called Stynylrez (wtf), which is branded as "Ultimate Primer" in the UK, like this: https://www.emodels.co.uk/ultimate-60ml-grey-primer-badger-stynylrez-030.html
I find Stynylrez (wtf) is really great as a touch-up primer to hit spots the spray missed. It is extraordinarily thin and can be jammed into recesses with a brush without clogging things up or making clumps. Its liquid carrier seems to evaporate like alcohol almost instantly.
I've had issues with Rustoleum grey when I tried it. Came out far to thick and I lost detail. There white worked very well for me.
