My collection pics

I'm in the middle of a huge rearrangement of the collection. But since I got the centerpiece completed, I figured I'd post some pics to get it started.

Start to finish on the centerpiece.

Clearing some space.


Pieces of the puzzle.






Time to get to work building the base.


1/2 of the base.


Full base with a 12" Rice for scale.




Starting with one front piece.

And adding a top....uh oh, a bit top heavy.


Putting the other fronts/tops together.


Had to call in some help at this point.


Now I can work on it by myself.






Backs complete.


Now on to the shelf brackets.

We need some art on the top.


Hulk original pencils, inks and colors.


Alex Ross Marvels 5 foot X 3 foot litho.


Alex Ross Giclee


Now, once I figure out how I'm going to arrange the rest of the collection I'll post updated collection pics.

No pics of me installing the shelves, but here's the finished product (without the doors)








Add the doors to the left and center. No doors on right just yet...the etched Playstation on the glass just isn't cutting it.

BEAUTIFUL SET UP 316What! The fact that you DIY converting the store display into very own custom case made display with pictures to show for with the progress makes this a perfect set up. And you have plenty of room add more pieces if you wanted too on top...now that's sweet! Congrats 316what, can't wait to see more of the collection.

Btw, are you planning on adding lights inside the case?
