davebo357 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Neat. Is that designed for displaying forward-facing comics? Is it on any kind of incline so they don't fall forward or you just leave them leaning back a little? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingDonut Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Mrs. Donut and I are thinking about a 5-10 year exit strategy. One of the requirements will be a large room to make into one of these comic rooms. I am in awe of all of them.

Popular Post fmaz Posted September 21, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2019 I think, this week, I officially started calling this a “comic room”... even though in reality it’s been one for years. The difference? I finally got sick and tired of digging through the closet when I wanted to pull out comics (I had my long boxes stacked in there with my supplies) and rearranged everything so it’s now easily accessible. The doors of the closet no longer close but it looks so much better (and I don’t have to keep a few long boxes on the floor anymore). It’s not a wild as some of the amazing stuff I’ve seen above, but it’s very me! The goal is to continue to add comic art to every available wall inch when I can... along with a few more statues.

I know most stuff is so much bigger now but I really like those. Hey, the fresh paint, I feel ya. We finally did a repaint in conjunction with a larger renovation project. But a dusting? I think you can handle that yourself!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coffee table ended up being a good solution to the space issue I was having. Previously the Whales were in places where you couldn't see them that well.

Is it painted plywood? Thanks! Are you on instagram? I got some more details of the Flagg on there. Someday I want to do a you tube video if I can figure out all the editing stuff. It was definitely a labor of love. I probably spent about 100 hours on it. Its painted plywood and 5 and 1/2" blocks. I should have turned on the lights for these pictures. Its got windows and stickers to match the top deck. I actually redid the top deck stickers to be glow in the dark but have it look like the original. I also put in panels from my childhood Mobile Command Center. Dremeling took forever lol. A section of the lower hanger even has a custom staircase and cat walk with railings. Other custom items from these pics is the 95' Unreleased Sea Wolf (grey whale), grey rattler to match the whale, side show Storm Shadow, Kenwood Stereo Cabinet black light display, and the Conan i put together from a model kit.

Gonzimodo Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 No, I'm not currently on Instagram, but that's easy enough to remedy. I noticed some of that extra detail in the substructure, too, but I wasn't sure what you had cannibalized to make it. It looks great. as does the whole room! I really like that coffee table. Is that just an acrylic case below a glass coffee table, or is there something fancier going on there? It's hard for me to tell from the angle of the pictures.

There's a couple panels of the MCC I cut out that holds the missiles so I can have them mounted on the wall. Yep the coffee table has a metal shelf underneath the top so I had an acrylic case put together to go on top of it. It came out pretty nice. I was going to use glass but didn't want any accidents. ikea sells a smaller coffee table that is used like this too Ikea Sammahang I was tempted to use that one but It would only hold one Whale and was too low to ground I felt like.
