Some time ago I acquired case for transporting model kits and figures. It’s made by Hobby Zone company and it is available in two sizes. I chose the bigger one. This is the content of the package that we receive. During assembly I decided to make small changes which will allow me to transport more and higher models. For this removal of some sections was necessary. After cutting what’s necessary I tinted it with mordant and sealed it with Wood primer. When that dried I assembled the case. Before the final layer of lacquer I wanted to add some additional details like logo of my modeling blog, club, some producers and forum. After applying all additional things I sealed everything with hard Wood lacquer. This is how it looks like in both options. One with two shelves with without drawers. Second one with one shelve with higher models and with drawers. This product is first class. It’s very helpful for carrying your kits for example for model contests. I strongly recommend this and other products of this company. They are worth it. I used it last weekend during a model show for the first time and it is fantastic. Long pour quality round but the kit's arrived in perfect condition.

NICE!!! That's something I need. Funny thing I assembled paint rack from Hobby Zone... it was great except for lack of instructions. I see that yours came with instructions while mine didn't.

Hi Andy. That had to be a mistake as they do add instructions. I had a paint rack that was missing a piece but had one that I didn't need. It was swapped without any problem. So I can say that service is all good Here is the promised photo:
