Description When I saw this contest at #PremiumMembers , I took a step back and shot my office exactly as it is, complete with coffee, snacks, and boxes waiting to be unpacked. XD This is my new epic workspace at my awesome new house. My desk is always a mess, and there's always at least one mug of coffee there. I surround myself with action figures because they inspire me. There are two action figure casualties on my desk, which took nosedives off the shelf and need to be repaired. I usually eat at my desk because I'm always working on *something.* If you want to see all the crazy little details, feel free to download.

I really like the actions figures....you really do have alot

lol, mine's only this "neat" because all my unsorted papers are in boxes at the moment. I'll have to go through them some day!

Thanks! Heh, yeah, it's kind of an addiction. ^_^;

That's probably because I cropped out most of the mess. XD

Gundams? Those are still packed up, I have about a dozen of them. Ran out of room before I got to them. ^_^;

btw, just because you don't like them, it doesn't make them "cheep."

It was supposed to be a joke. You see I was trying to imply that the figures were cheap because there's no assembly required.

Actually, a couple of the Eva Units are model kits.

I remember seeing some what if Eva models, such as armored 01, were those real or just fan mods?

Merowynn In reply to Ether101 [2011-09-27 16:16:45 +0000 UTC]

There were some heavily armored Evas in the "Evangelion 2" PS2 game, which became known as F-Type Experimental Armor. I think Unit 01 even had a giant chain saw. XD

Cool. I have a lot of "action figures"... though, they're all in their original packagings...packages... packe... things. Keeps off the dust and makes 'm easy to hang.
Computer to the left for movie watching while working? Perhaps a game during lunch?

Merowynn In reply to Xsuprio [2011-09-23 21:55:34 +0000 UTC]

I feel like my action figures are more like sculpture, and should be viewed "in the round" rather than in the package. Even though I know it totally destroys their valute. ^_^;;;

The other computer is actually my fiancee's, he uses it for gaming.

Xsuprio In reply to Merowynn [2011-09-24 07:59:37 +0000 UTC]

I actually agree. It would be nice to be able to view all angles. I've just always regretted taking 'm out.
Solution: buy two ...of... everything...?

That would be the ideal solution if, say, I ever won the lottery.

Merowynn In reply to Fred--Lang [2011-10-01 18:31:47 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I find them really inspiring, since each one really is its own little work of art.

That's so awesome that you work for Hasbro, btw, I'd love to have a job like that someday. Any advice you can give on how to work my way up to that?

Fred--Lang In reply to Merowynn [2011-10-01 21:42:49 +0000 UTC]

I wish I could!

I was working on a pencil test for Marvel when I accidentally stumbled upon the Hasbro deal.

I was healing a group in World of Warcraft and accidentally found that the tank in my group was the Creative Director for Hasbro Star Wars, and he was looking for a comic-book style for their new line of toys.

He gave me his e-mail, I sent him a Star Wars portfolio in about three days, he e-mailed back and called me, then hired me. Hasbro mailed me the contract that afternoon, I signed it and e-mailed it back, and I was in.

You never, ever know who you're talking to...! I guess that's my best lesson!

I so wish I had one of those artist tables! I need one like so bad right now. But no room in my bedroom since I still live with my parents...if I ever get to move out I would have my own office.

Merowynn In reply to JenniferKitty20 [2011-09-23 21:58:51 +0000 UTC]

There are usually pretty affordable drafting table sets you can get at art stores, like $150 for table, chair, lamp and side tray. This is the first place I've lived where I've had enough room for one!

JenniferKitty20 In reply to Merowynn [2011-09-24 06:35:46 +0000 UTC]

Well with my pathetic paychecks only being able to work 2 days and going to class 5 days a week I can't afford anything right now. I'm still trying to pay off the books and art supplies I had to buy for my classes and my bills. So it blows.

Merowynn In reply to JenniferKitty20 [2011-09-24 20:35:00 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I hear that. I definitely did the poor college student thing, living in my parents' basement and everything. Eventually the hard work pays off.

You should give that crappy Dell monitor to Derek and take the other fancy wide screen lcd!

You don't need a nice computer monitor to read forums about D&D XD

Merowynn In reply to keylord [2011-09-23 21:59:41 +0000 UTC]

XD I actually like having a taller monitor for my 2nd one, since I mainly use it for surfing the web and looking up image references.

Hah! That's not a bad idea!

Also I know you have classes, but you have an open invitation to the current Tuesday game if we're still running when you don't have classes anymore!

Yeah, that's about half my collection, I think. Another quarter of them are in the living room, and then there's a quarter of them that I haven't unpacked yet... not sure where they're going to go. ^_^; I actually get a lot of inspiration from them, so I like having them visible where I'm working. ^_^

I loved it! I love how close they're sticking to the manga, and I think MadHouse has brought a new level of quality to it; it was already really slick, but now it's got an extra element of polish to it. I can't wait for OVA IX!
