Or at least non-descript.. enough that maybe whoever isn't supposed to notice it wont.. Lol I don't know what I'm saying Looks great!

The all black works well in any room, and it's not entirely obvious you're storing comics (well at least to a non-collector). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marvelmaniac Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 After posting the above photos I decided to hang the two remaining items that were in the closet. Still have not figured out how I am going to display the loose figures. There is a story about the Spider-Man painting, that was painted freehand on a canvas by an old friend, I came home from work one day back in 98 and the painting was sitting outside my door with a note that read... "I am leaving town and cannot take this with me and you are the only person I know that would appreciate it as much as I do". Painting title, date and artist are written on the frame in the back.

tv horror Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 @marvelmaniac I like this Spider-man plaque can you tell me a bit more about it thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvelmaniac Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I really do not have that much info on it, it was given to me for Christmas back in 91/92, I have no idea where it was even purchased. There are no markings anywhere on it that would indicate anything about it. When I moved and took new pics and made a new/up to date list for the insurance company I tried a Google search to get an idea of date or any info and was not able to find out anything about it. tv horror 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1webslinger Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I saw this before, it's a clock made out of a poster, the poster is laminated to 1/4" foam board, it's cut with a scroll saw to the desired shape, a clock kit is fastened and they are finished with some type of acrylic clear coat ( like the stuff they put on bar tops) I have one made out of a different poster. I got mine at a local comic shop in 1990 marvelmaniac and tv horror 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneticNinja Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I found a few of my old comic book record sets. I think I used to listen to them on a small suitcase type record player. But I've heard those are bad for records. Still I'm thinking about setting something up as I used to listen to those records a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a lot Amazing set-up. Nowhere close to yours, but I do have some comic related stuff in a corner of my office too. I work mainly with young adults, and most of my patients really appreciate this and they are often a really effective ice breaker.

Popular Post Badlands Posted May 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 30, 2019 Because it seems quite a few of you were interested, I thought I would share my progress on the Incredible Hulk pinball machine. First, I disassembled as much as I could. Took all the hardware off and cleaned it with CLR. Took the graphics off and just cleaned with soap and water. I even took apart the two bumpers and cleaned them! Next, I had to take off all the old electronics on the back in order to get to the colored discs that would normally light up. Dirt, grime and possibly mice droppings galore in those! I used dust off to blow that out, then windex to clean the discs. Last, I sprayed several coats of Krylon to try to preserve what little paint there is left. Of the side by side pics, the one on the left is the finished product, the one on the right when I received the piece. The last pic is what it will look like all lit up from behind. Pros: the colors popped from the several coats of Krylon; the graphics came out very nice; the colored discs cleaned up extremely well. Cons: the paint continues to chip, and the rust is too deep, will not come off. Antpark, Krismusic, ADAMANTIUM and 17 others 19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badlands Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I found a link on YouTube to build a cabinet around it and use as a coffee table with legs as suggested earlier. I am going to strategically put led rope lighting behind the colored discs to make it pop. F For Fake and ADAMANTIUM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
