----------------------------------------------------------------- SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE ----------------------------------------------------------------- So we picked out the two tone colors. I took everyone's ides into consideration and also asked my fiancee if I could use the support beam as a stripper pole of sorts. She winked and smirked at me so I figured I'd share that good news with everyone! Haha. Anyways, I took pictures of the ideas I have in mind, Figure set up and such. This is going to change a million times before it's all said and done, but at least I now have a visual of what it could end up looking like. I looked into the Slat Boards and Walls, but they are way out of my price range so I'll probably end up just painting over the old peg boards and using those because they're still in amazing condition for how old they are. The last picture is what the colors are going to be. They seems warm and inviting to me instead of just all black. The tables in the room will have black throw sheets over them, though, so they'll look better with everything. The items under the table, picture boxes, trophies etc, will be moved out of the room as well. So act as if they're not even there. Anyways, onward to the update pictures! What you see when you walk in Peg board/MOCs/Loose Wide Angle Color Choice +++++++++++++++++UPDATE+++++++++++++++++ The above picture you see are obviously what it used to look like. Thanks to quick drying paint and a whole bunch of Journey songs, I was able to get both halves done today. Did 3 coats on each half to hide the blue. The drying is starting to come along amazing. Yes, I do know that I need to touch up some areas but the bulk is done and I'll touch them up tomorrow. So for now, here's and updated picture of how it's coming along!

Thanks! I plan to Wylee. The room right now will be moved completely within the next month or so. I plan to at least start painting on the 2nd of next month. I might just end up painting when my tax return comes in on Wednesday.

The initial start looks like a good start. Are you going to paint the ceiling? If it is a low ceiling I would definitely think about painting it. The colors you picked are nice neutral colors. Can't wait to see progress pics later.

I was going to use the top color as the ceiling color as well that way it feels as an "extension" of the room, rather than the ceiling.

Quick update. Paint and supplies will be bought in the morning after work hopefully. I'm going to start clearing out the room and such so i can wash down the walls as that will bring us to Monday morning. By Tuesday morning I hope to be painting since it's going to be sunny outside. Wednesday I hope to be putting the bottom portion of the paint on and letting that dry until the next day.
If all goes well everything should be done by Thursday or Friday morning!

I only have a crawl space with shell & rocks, so you win this round. Very nice set up so far, and I'm excited to see what's next. Good luck man.

Earlier today I finished the top portion of the paint, going to start the bottom portion soon. I'll post pictures of the before and after when it's all said and done.
