Default Avengers Mini-Bust Shelf
Thought I'd post some close up shots of my Avengers Mini-Bust shelf. This used to be a place for pool sticks, but I put in the shelves. Happier with it this way.

Started with original Avengers teams and worked my way forward.

Default The X-Men Shelf
I'm a huge X-men fan and this top shelf is something I really enjoy. I am into the diorama-thing and really like putting the statues together to see how they look.



Working left to right....













And then the X-Men mini-bust shelves are on the wall above them. First the heroes....



And then the villians....

Default Black Knight and A Friend....
One of my favorite Avengers has always been the Black Knight. I picked up a pegasus statue at a garage sale and have considered putting it in the display with him, but there's not enough space right now. But, I took some shots of them together because I always think they look cool together....









Still trying to find one in full scale to put with him....

Default A few FF shots...
It doesn't get enough credit, but this first FF set by Randy still is one of my favorites...







I especially love the Thing and Human Torch. The Thing sat on my desk when I started my first company...





Would love to see more FF stuff...

Thanks! That Space Ghost is a signed and numbered lithograph by Alex Ross I got as a gift years ago. I've not seen others out there.

I'm trying to learn to be a better photographer so I'm playing with different lighting and backgrounds to try to show off the statues.

Default Just For Fun.....
So, one of my goals is to try to learn to be a better photographer. I've been playing around with backgrounds and lighting over the past week or so. Thought I'd post some of the shots just for fun. Enjoy!

X-Men Shots















Haven't tried anything with Photoshop just yet, but will get there.

If you see the collection thread in new posts, it's because new pics have been added.

That's a toy from my childhood in the 1970's. It's the Mattel Space:1999 playset of the Space Eagle ship. I've had that since my childhood.

Here is the link to a description of it - Mattel Space Eagle Playset Here's a video from YouTube of one that someone put up.

One of my favorite childhood toys.....
