The Man Cave


 Welcome to Science Fiction Modeler, a blog dedicated to my exploits in resin and styrene. This will be a place for me to both document my progress on builds as well as showcase finished projects.  To kick things off, I thought I would show my "Man Cave", the backroom of the house my wife has graciously allowed me to use as my workbench and display room.

The virtual tour starts with the TV cabinet,  on top of which is my 1980's Kenner Super Powers collection. I played the crap out these things in my youth, and now after a repaint and restoration effort, they have new life in the cave.

 The shelf above the guest bed is home to my wife's Harry Potter Toner dolls as well as various models from Batmobiles, Doctor Who, to Battlestar Galactica.


The Farscape collection:

These shelves are on top of the fireplace, I use this area to showcase my Star Wars collection.



 This is the area by my work bench. I have a Star Wars autograph collection going, most of whom I have met at various SciFi conventions:
 Frank Oz:
 Billy Dee Williams:
 Ray Park:
 Peter Mayhew:
Jeremy Bolloch:
 Carrie Fisher:
 Kenney Baker:
 Anthony Daniels:
 David Prowse
 Matthew Wood:
 Shannon McRandel:
 Custom Superman Print:
 Theater used film cells from all six Star Wars Movies:

And that rounds out the tour. I am already working on a new project and taking pictures for a Work In Progress post. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy my efforts.
