Ok, I know I'm ressurecting an old thread, but I just wanted to let you all know something.
For the last 10 years that I've lived in my home, the walls in my room have always been blank. White. EMPTY.
As some of you out there who know me and what I do might imagine, that just doesn't sit with me. I've ben trying to convince my parents for a while to let me paint my walls. The finally caved :king:
.
Anyway, now that I have had some time to think about it, I don't want to paint my walls just one color anymore, so, I'm painting my walls and ceiling to look like, what else, Disneyland .
I'm going to have a Fantasyland/Frontierland wall, a Tomorrowland wall, a Mainstreet U.S.A which I may also paint DCA in the corner of the wall, and a Adventureland/New Orleans Square/ Critter Country wall. When you stand in the Hallway, my door will act as the bridge under the MainStreet Train station (possibly with a model of the station above it), and when you walk through, you will see a Model of the castle on my dresser(maybe 2: One that I'm Making and the other being the WDW Monorail toy Playset one; I'm leaning more towards my model). I'd paint the castle on the wall, but my window is right there, so there's no whenere for it to go
. Anyway, Next to the Castle Model on the right will be the Matterhorn (Already drawn on the wall in Pencil). This wall is the wall parallel to the wall with my door. Also on the Dresser is my Mad Tea Party and Dumbo Monorail Toys, along with some models I might be building. I hope to possibly build my own Mr Toad's Wild ride Car out of plywood which would be a loveseat, possibly for one (is that an oxymoron?), maybe 2 if i have the room which I think I do. Above the window I'm painting Toontown, and maybe building models of Mickey and Minnies Houses to make it a little more Dimensional. To the left of the castle I'm going to paint Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, The Mark twain, The Columbia and Tom Sawyers Island, namely the Fnatasmic Stage. The wall to the right when you walk in will be the Tomorrowland wall, which is whene my bed is (Bunkbed to be specific), and my bed is becoming a Submarine Voyage themed bed, with fish hanging down from the top bunk, bubbles, a sea creature painted on the wall (The one from the ride) along with a sub and fish. I also have my model sub that I made hanging from the top bunk. A thick sheet of blue tinsel-like icicle things hang down covering the actual bed, acting as the waterfall over the caverns. There is a row of blue Icicle lights strung up behind it to give it an extra shimmery look, as well as to add a blue, underwater-like hue to everything in my bunk. I plan to build my own model Peoplemover, track and all, that will run around my bed and through a few models of Tomorrowland Buildings, being powered by a Radio Shack "Zip Zap" car in the first car. I also hope to paint the "Beyond the Greatest star of all Lies our Future" Mural on my wall as well. I have a desk against that wall that the Peoplemover track, my Lava Lanp, and my computer will be on as well as a few other models, such as the House Of the Future Model I built/am building, a Diorama of the Extinct Adventure Thru Inner Space "Back On Visual" scene, my proposed Monster's Inc. Attraction Facade model, and My Monorail Toy Astro Orbitor. My toy Monorail Track will be attached to the wall and the ceiling, much like what this guy did . It will run through both the Contemporary resort Monorail Accessory and Spaceship Earth Acessory I have. I have both red and Blue Christmas Lights strung up along my Bunkbed, along with a string of Blue Ropelights. The wall on your left when you walk in, which is parallel to the Tomorrowland wall, will be the Adventureland/New Orleans Square/Critter Country wall. On the far left of that wall, I'm painting the Elephant bath scene of the Jungle Cruise with a Jungle Cruise Boat in the Foreground (already drawn) along with the Tiki Room in the distance Due to Lack of Space, and if I can accuire one of those animatronic Parrots that repeats whatever you say, I'm going to redress it to look like Jose, the now-defunct Tiki Room Barker Bird. To the Right of the Jungle Cruise scene I'm not sure exactly what I'm painting there, as the Pirates of the Caribbean Entrance isn't that spectacular, so I might paint the Town on Fire Scene or the Auction scene, I'm not really sure what at this time. Anyway, next to that I'm painting the Haunted Mansion, or maybe a Model, depending on what kind of mood I'm in when I get to that point. Right now, I'm leaning towards Painting it. Anyway, On my Sliding closet doors, I'll be painting Splash Mountain and Possibly Both The Country Bear Jamboree and Winnie the Pooh, I Might build models so I can make Splash Mountain Bigger, but I'll be using both because I frankly hold no grudges against Disneyland's Pooh other than that he killed the Bears, but either way I'll be incorperating both of them since I find them both to be great attractions. The wall with my door, which is parallel to the Fantasyland/Frontierland/Toontown wall, will be the Main Street U.S.A/(possibly)DCA wall. The back of my door will be painted to look like the entrance to the Empourium, and next to that will be the Crystal Arcade, complete with a light up sign that I made. I'm thinking of Painting a Few of the Main Street Electrical Parade Floats Moving Down Mainstreet with Glow in the Dark paint and such. There will be other things on that wall that i just haven't come up with yet, but there is a space there that I don't want.The main reasons I'm Thinking of painting DCA at all is because the foor of my bed is up against that wall so there's about 3 feet to the ceiling, and having Main Street U.S.A just shrink like that seems quite odd, and I'm sure I'll have no problem fitting all the highlights of that Park in that 4 x3 foot space :lol: . Also, I built a model of their Tower of Terror that I'm really proud of that I want to keep out, but I want it to fit in with my room. I also want to build one of Muppet Vision 3D, which would also require DCA. The ceiling will be painted like the night sky with glow in the dark painted fireworks on the ceiling and ceiling fan. Oh, before I forget, I wanted to add a little touch that Walt Himself personally requested from his Disneyland: My whole room will be encircled by aa working HO scale Disneyland Railroad Train .
So whaddya think?
Ofcourse, if you want, I'll post pictures of my progress.
Ok, thanks!
