It was Jon  from Sphere mentioning it on Planet Figure that prompted me to get one Nick but I'm impressed so far. There's also some other good stuff.

Since I've spent the last 30 years HOLDING my figures when I paint, I can't imagine getting used to painting with a stand. Still, a pretty neat little device.  8)

Patrick, I don't paint on it, I just stand the figures up in it when I have finished a session to protect them from me putting my coffee cup ;) on them. I can also stand back from them to see where they need extra shading,  after drinking all that coffee ;) ( but it's a bit distracting seeing  2 of the same figure both at once ;D ;D ;D ;D)

That's exactly how I've been using mine Nick, I have touched up and tweaked little bits with the figure on the stand.

I ordered one of these since for the next 6 months I'm limited to use only my left arm and hand. It'll be a challenge topaint with the left hand for the first time.
