I admit: I am spoiled. My wife is very accommodating and has allowed me to claim the basement as my own domain. She is supportive and came up with many of the ideas below.
Over the years my basement Den has slowly evolved: from an unfinished concrete basement into a cosy warm cave. Lage TV, fireplace, 3 piece washroom, leather sofas, gaming area and plenty of display and storage options.
For miniature display my den contains 4 large glass display cabinets, 10 wall mounted glass cabinets and 3 wall mounted antique letter press drawers converted into display cabinets.
Asher is my main gaming opponent. He usually wins. |
My gaming table is a 6.5 x 4 foot MDF board, with multiple gaming mats. It is mounted on black resin shelving which holds all my board games, painting supplies and some terrain. The table is bar height, 40 inches. Smaller terrain is stored at the side, in a roll around storage bin.
The TV is my middle son's primary video game area. The larger glass cabinets hold my old Warhammer armies, 8 in total: Chaos Warriors (Khorne, Slaanesh and Nurgle), Dark Elves, Orcs and Goblins, Beasts of Chaos, Ogres and Vampire Counts.
Most of the wall mounted cabinets hold my 15mm collection.
Just outside of the main room is a small alcove under the stairs. It holds my hobby carts and larger terrain pieces in pull out plastic storage bins.
This is my space, the place where I come to forget about adulting and be an irresponsible kid again.
Very nice Darren. A fair few jealous wargamers out here 😁
ReplyDeleteMy wife let me have a room but not as nice as yours'. (I mean the room not the wife 😂)
😂 We all have our leashes. Some are longer than others.
DeleteSuperb Man Cave. Lucky boy to a wonderful wife!
ReplyDeleteI am lucky. I need to use it more actually. I play very little these days.
