My Set-up Part II - Also, my fleamarket haul!
free touch | 3:57 PM on 08.09.2008 11 comments


HI EVERYBODY.

Alrighty, I said I was going to do this before, and now is the time. I finally cleaned my office. And instead of filling up the clogs with more than enough topics, I'll just put these two together. Respekt Knuckles Coon!

This is the place I get all my art done. All the figures and faceplates and comic art gets done in this, the central headquarters of the Kozak Galactic Palace.

As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by my spider man light switches


and by an original Transformers the Movie Poster. (they gave it out at the movie, the other side has My Little Pony on it.)


Turn the corner and you'll see my bookshelf, filled with Trade Paperbacks and reference books
along with a Bryan Hitch signed Ultimate Avengers poster, a working CD-i, Sega Genesis w/ Sega CD, and a Magnavox Odyssey 2. And other collectibles and junk.


In that mess, you will see the biggest Transformer I have ever bought: Primus. I got him at the Red White and Blue thrift store for $4.


Open up the closet, and what do you see? well besides boxes, and art supplies, you see 15 boxes of comic books. 10 Long boxes and 5 short. Yes, its that bad.


Turn a 180, and you'll see my drawing table. Nothing fancy, but everything else around it sets the mood. Michael Jackson's Thriller, for $2 at the same thrift store.


Now, onto the computer section. That is actually where all the magic happens, I scuplt there, draw there somtimes, paint there, and bullshit there.



Here's a few close ups of the toys and shit I have up there. I love Transformers, I always have, and the new animated versions are just so awesome. The Eva02 is signed by the american voice actress for Asuka. That N64 I bought at a garage sale, complete in box, with the twist ties still on it, for $35.


Here's some more toys. I got the virtual boy at the same thrift store for $15. I cannot get it to work, and I've tried everything. It came with two games as well.



And that's it! If you have any questions, let me know, i'll be sure to answer. Also, at the bottom, are the original size files, so you can get some high def pics of my stuff. (not that you'd want to, just incase you think your eyes are deceiving you.)


NOW, on to my fleamarket hauls this (and last) week.

First up is the main group of stuff. I got those 5 DS games at a flea market for $20 total!
Gunpey is sweet, as is Transformers Decepticons. I got the Super Gameboy and those 3 games for $10 at the same place. I got Kirby's Airride and TOZ: Windwaker for $4 total.



Now, for what I got today... Lookit! a Pirate Gameboy Color game called 68 in 1 Color.



I got that puppy for $1. The games are actually all really good. Pokemon, Super Mario Land, etc. I will actually write a review for this in the next week, with a list of all 68 games they managed to cram into this tiny black box.


Thanks all for looking!
