My arcade - "The Elbow Room"

[Phetishboy]

I love stuff like this. That's the goddamned Honey Comb Hideout if I've ever seen it. You need any Honeycomb license plates or want a signed autographed pic of that freckled kid with the buck teeth that used to be on the cover, you just let old Phetty know.

For sure. What it lacks in size, it more than makes up for it in "cool factor". And if someone were to tell me they were putting that brick stuff on the walls, i would have said "meh", but after seeing it in there I think it looks awesome.

I can not believe how awesome you made a relatively small area.

Looks fantastic!! GREAT work!

Amazing. All the custom characters are awesome! I wonder how long it is before somebody PM's you and asks you to make them some.

JUST AMAZING! When I saw that first photo with that tiny form on the ground I was thinking that is way too small, but it really is nice and perfect! My problem is that I have too many for that space already, and in NY it is fricking cold in the winter!

Very well done! All your games look awesome, especially the PP cockpit! And, man, those Assault sticks look brand new!

I'm stopping by next time I'm in that area.

You really need to rename that place the ARCADE TARDIS. Great work.

Wow, very nice space.

Wow- that looks freakin' cool! Do you remember the brand/type of flourescent paint you used on the floor? I'm getting ready to do stained concrete in my game room and wanted to do flourescent paint like you did. Tighe gave me the idea in my game room floor thread- and I really like how yours looks!

 

[shertz]

WOW!! Thats awesome!! I hope to expand my (G)arcade someday.

Reminds me of the smaller arcades that I experienced traveling as a kid (the size you might find in a Hotel or poolside at a KOA campground). Looks great. Congrats.

Awesome!!!!

Thanks, I got a great deal on the PP from a really cool fellow klov'er... . The same guy also gave me a fantastic deal on rebuilding my Assault sticks with NOS parts. Thanks Stephen! You're welcome to come by anytime.

Here's a couple of pics of the one's I used - they're just the cheap acrylics from Michaels, around $1.50 each. Just make sure they are "neon" colors. I bought blue, red(pink, really), orange, yellow, green, and the one on the end is a glow in the dark paint. If you put it on lightly, it is fairly transparent, but will glow under black light. The other colors glow nicely, but the green and the yellow are almost the same color.

Thanks again to everone for all the great compliments. Now I'm all fired up to add more stuff to my "Honeycomb Hideout".

Thanks Paul, you're welcome anytime! I was just thinking about you the other day, wondering how you're doing. I hope you're doing well.

Thanks John! One of these days maybe I'll move and have a basement, at which point I'll have to sport a thumbring...

Thanks again to everybody for the great comments. I'll try to get a short video posted soon.
