AO: Throughout the last year or so, I have been putting together my "man-cave." My girlfriend graciously allowed me my own room to store all of my gear into our second bedroom we had. I have slowly gathered and changed it to my liking and I think I am finally complete. Here is a teaser picture of the finished results!

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6823946/Personal%20PB/ManCaveV2.jpg

55in Samsung TV
Xbox One
Ikea Bookcase
Lighting
Color Changing Lighting behind the TV
Hexagon Mirrors (I was trying to do something else, but quickly realized that I couldn't get the mirrors off the wall because of the double stick tape. It will be a PITA to remove...)

I <3 ikea :D

I'm going to take some more pictures of it tonight to show you guys around the rest of my room.

What do you guys think? :p

That looks great.

And I thought I was doing good with a hutch in the living room for the guns and a dresser upstairs for the extra guns & parts.... Time to try to renegotiate.

I need to take more updated pics. The problem is that I need more slat-wall as these are already full so I now have a bunch of markers laying in the floor.

Thanks for all the replies so far!!! I just updated the post with more pictures.

mpsd: It's alright so far. Many of the games have been pushed back and it feels like there are not that many games out right now. I would wait until spring 2014 if I had to do it all over again. It seems like that is when most of the "next-gen" titles will start to come out.

do the notes on wall mean anything?

Menace_AO
11-27-2013, 09:41 PM
^^^^

Yes, actually. I read music, and it is from that most ancient and revered song we all learned in our youth:

"I got my maaaan cave,
It's better than yooouour man cave,
It's got the maaaaags you crave,
I've got nothiiiiiing to prove,
It's now Tom Kaaaaaye approved,
It'll never beeee removed,
No need to tellllllll us,
That you're all jeeeeaalous,
And that all, felllllllas . . ."

There's a few other verses, of course, but we already know that one, so no need. :p

BTAutoMag
11-27-2013, 09:46 PM
lol, I read music too. the paint spot covering the key signature could be purpose or accident or even that the key signature does not exist at all. normally when people do art like that that is piece specific they start it with the notes and then trail off rather then ending with notes 4 measures in.

RT Lover: Lol, my girlfriend doesn't mind the abundance of paintball guns around the house, but a stripper pole? I might be pushing it.... :-)

BTAutoMag: I have no idea. I bought them like that. I like music and paint splatter so I said why the hell not?

Menace_AO: :cheers:

Nobody: My gf bought it at http://www.containerstore.com/

Xmagterror: I thought it would be a perfect platform to get one done. SSR Racing did the coating, but I would not recommend it. The amount of money and the type of business that SSR racing is, I would never do another gun. Unfortunately, I sent both an Xmag and Shockwave. One made it out alive. :-\ I'll post up my story after I get it back from Wayne (SSR Racing)

koleah: Exactly!

I too was bless with a women in my life that is willing to put up with my love of paintball and all that misc parts that come with it. We moved into a new apartment in a house that is over 100 years old. We had a spare bedroom that was going to be the wife's craft room, but slowly became my man cave. That in-turn became my paintball room. She now simply avoids the room all together so I tend to spread my paintball gear over the IKEA table and carpeted floor.
