Here are some pics of a definite "Work In Progress"- My "Hobby Room". I'll be updating these as the room gets better organized and new additions are made. This was part of an addition I made to the house, hence it's still not set up in it's final format (note the lack of window dressing).
I just want to state that it's an eclectic mess of different themes: Aviation, 1/6th figures, Military, Sci-Fi and Fantasy.
So without further adieu, here we go!...
This is a shot of the main 1/6th figure "wall". Keep in mind that I've strived to provide a unique pose for each figure displayed. On the top row are my aviation themed figures, more or less in chronological or era order, ending with one of my Apollo astronauts. Under that on the left is my WWII themed figures and on the right my modern themed figures. The bins and boxes in the center hold part of my loose 1/6th "stuff"...
Close-up of the Left side:
Close-up of the Right side, which includes my modeling bench:
Next is a small section that will hold all of my Custom figures. You can see the ton of custom headsculpts, some painted, some just started, but all hopefully to be completed one day...:
Here's the wall immediately in front of my computer desk: The Hellcat print is signed by the late David S. McCampbell, Commander Air Group 15, 1944. WWII Naval Ace with 34 kills. Underneath to the left is a signed photo of Gabby Gabreski, WWII & Korean War Ace with 28 & 6 kills respectively and to the right is signed photo of the crew of the Memphis Belle, signed by Col. Robert Morgan, commander of the aircraft.
This is a wall to wall closet behind the three doors. The photos above the doors are also signed by the respective aces depicted ("Duke" Cunningham(Vietnam Naval Ace), C.E. "Bud" Anderson (WWII Mustang Ace), and a bunch of "Flying Tiger" aces ("Tex" Hill, Dick Rossi, Robert Scott, Bob Taylor and Charlie Bond):
And here the doors are opened to reveal a medium sized hobby shop's inventory in plastic model kits, books & magazines and 1/6th boxed figures...
Opposite the closet, I have this display case filled with Sideshow/Weta "Lord of the Rings" collectibles, built model kits, and at the bottom-left, a humidor holding some authentic Cuban Cohibas...
Finally, to the right of the display case is an old TV unit that I've converted to a statue display unit, with additional LOTR collectibles from Sideshow. Above is a 1:1 sword "Anduril", from the "Lord of the Rings":
Hope you enjoyed the tour of the Eagle's Nest!
