New Hobby Area

Villiers de Vos
Very nice.

That will be a nice man cave 👍
Now you can transfer your stash into the shelving while having a lot of fun. Do you plan to close the shelving with glass or plexi doors (because of dust) ?

Very nice idea with the built-in shelve. 👍

John Hughes
I'd like to do something along these lines, but the shelves will need to be deeper to accomodate the 1m wingspan of some of the planes!

Dutch
Looking fabulous, Nathan! I am jealous! I may try something along these lines next year when the two youngest (28 & 30) are married and out of the house. First, reduce the stash to a reasonable level. But I like what I see so far with your hobby room. K/r, Dutch

Nathan Dempsey
Thanks mates 🙂

Bughunter: I'm hoping to fit plexi doors to the areas that aren't filled by stash & books. I'm not sure how much will be left but John is right I'll only be able to fit smaller prop fighters there in 1:48 or my 1:144 kits. I have 3 fully sealed glass cases that will fit elsewhere in the room for my other builds.

We will soon see if all my measurements were correct when it is time to start moving in all my junk.

Filling and sanding of the walls.

Spanjaard
looks really promising 🙂

Guy Rump
Looking like it's going to be a joy to model in. 👍

Nathan Dempsey
Thanks mates 🙂

Today it appears the filling is complete and the workers added texture to the walls. I'm assuming paint is next.

Dutch
Narthan, How big is the room? 12'x12'?

John Thomas
Very nice, lots of light

Nathan Dempsey
Thanks John 🙂

Dutch: The dimensions are 10.5'x14.5' but there's another 16 inches to the 10.5 side being taken by the shelf unit.

A little paint is now on the walls. Progress is slow here, but luckily the rest of the house is moving along at a fairly quick pace.

Nathan Dempsey
Finally some progress. Room (and house) is done with the exception of the shelving on the wall which apparently I have to install myself.
