The Vallejo model paint kit I bought did not come with a decent storage solution so I decided to try to make one. This was my very first 3D model from scratch and in the end I came up with 3 variations of the design I imagined.

The first variation I made was the 2 Tier Staggered design. I started to have doubts if this was the design I really wanted to print and so I went back and came up with the 2 Tier Straight design instead. This is the model I ended up printing and currently using but I felt I could maybe do better. In the end I came up with one more variation, the 4 Tier Straight.

Again, I only ended up printing the 2 Tier Straight design but I thought I would include the other variations in case someone was interested.

*UPDATE 02-03-2017*

I felt like tweaking this once again. This time I rounded off the sharp corners. I think it looks a little better...

*UPDATE 08/11/2019*

Now with no "PAINT" text. Enjoy!

Originally designed in my head then haphazardly transcribed onto a crumpled piece of scrap paper. Later using a caliper to fill in some rational measurements and finally attempting to reproduce my vision in SketchUp
