flexible, adjustable and easy in use

Nope this is not a office chair advertisement but something I invented yesterday. While I am still busy with the aspiring champion I have already started undercoating a next model to paint.

I am now doing the nmm but I only paint this with day lights, for me a lamp bulp (or multiple) gives not enough light to do it well. So I have already undercoated my next mini but then I came to a problem, this is a older gw mini wich consists of metal (%#@*%! finecast) but he is quit top heavy so my usually way of holding it while painting didn't work.



So I was screahing in my drawer for something to hold the mini and I saw a pack of clay lying around I only used that once for the display base.

This is what I came up with:

To hold the thing I used is a half ball which you can push in so it will jump and make a *pick* sound(I have already used it for undercoating some parts but it used to have a smile on it) 



And here we got the thing in action with another top heavy mini, the one I am going to do after the aspiring champion is still secret but I can tell you that it is a very strong high elf... ques who? ;)

anyway, I hope this is useful for anyone who has the same problem, no back to painting! ;)
