bryan_robson Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) Hey everyone - I've been lurking for many years here, but this is my very first postI I really love this thread so I thought that it was time to post mine before it's all gone. We are moving from our apartment in NYC to a new place in San Fran soon, so I wanted to show everyone my comic room - or maybe it's more of a comic/geek/gamer apartment. I hope that you enjoy the mix of art, comics, games and all around nerdiness. Here is the left corner of the living room with my Turtles 1 9.6, Hulk 181 9.4, X-Men 94 9.4 and my stack of slabs. I have a run of X-Men from 94-544 with 94 to 140 on the shelf. The painting is by Mark Bodnar who does some great stuff. This one is a joystick and a button arguing about something or other - apparently involving a shotgun. These are some of my favorite books that I have sitting in that bookshelf. The slabs. This is the center of the living room with the TV, video game consoles and my tube amps. Here is the right side of the living room with my "NapoleanTrooper" oil painting above the fireplace. For reference it's about 5' by 4'. Above the stairs I have my three CGC babies. AF 15 7.0, Hulk 1 7.0 and TOS 39 7.0. All from Gator - thanks! I had the custom frames done at a local frame store with UV glass. Here is an image from the couch in the living room looking back: Leah and I have a thing for Domos. Here they are demanding food. In my bedroom I have a few pieces. This painting is a mashup of an old Apollo photograph with Kirk, Spock and Scotty. It's about 7 feet tall and sits to the left of the bed. Above the bed is a repro of an old Eric Stanton cartoon with new dialogue: On the book shelves I have some vintage game consoles as well as some Michael Lau figures, plus the first and only Nintendo GBA game I directed: Downstairs is my home office / workshop / WoW area. On the far left you can see the original Star Wars advance mylar with the old logo. The strange brown thing on the stairs is our bulldog. Here is a detail of the Daft Punk painting. This is a detail of our insane bulldog aka "Elwynn" - bonus points if you get the origin of name I collect video game systems as well. This is a photo of me standing with my collection in the entrance to my old office. There are close to 140 systems in the collection. They are all complete (other than the most modern ones which are probably plugged in somewhere). I have one of the Nintendo World Championship gold carts. Someday I'll get it framed. A couple of photos from my parent's house. I went back and re-bagged a ton of books last christmas and replaced a bunch of decrepit boxes. This is my closet at the patent's house. About eight long-boxes and tons of pretty much worthless mid-90s Star Wars figures. I was nostalgic one night and rummaged through the boxes pulling a smathering of my favorite books from them. I bet you can tell how old I am by the books: And here is a picture that my parents have hanging of me from when I was in fourth grade. Many fond memories of reading and collecting. Thanks - hope you enjoy -- James and Leah Who does your paintings? Awesome! Edited August 4, 2013 by bryan_robson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psithyrus Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Is the bulldog's name from WoW? Just a great room and welcome to the boards. While I won't have anything as spectacular as this, I'm hoping to be able to share my own little space soon. I put an offer in on a house this week.

I appreciate that. I hope it goes smoothly. I found out a few weeks ago that my apartment complex was sold, and the new owners are closing it, and forcing everyone to move in October. Luckily, I had been searching a few months already. I've got an energetic Australian cattle dog that I think will flourish with a yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
