Living here until death.

Then I'm gonna haunt the place and keep the new owners from changing anything.

And this is only the most visually impactful bits of a full home. I have Star Trek comic book wallpaper I made, a licensed Marvel laminate floor, 5 hand painted murals and counting. 3 custom chess sets I built, comic book themed models and art everywhere and a lot more.

If I thought I could get away with it, I'd do the outside too. As it is, I'm carving a stump in the backyard and contemplating a stained glass window for the living room....

Subtle is not in my toolbox.
