Two Years Difference
Some great change I see here!
Would like to see more and will post some of my "before and after" workspace photos soon.
Original text from Alfisti below.
Been meaning to upload this here for a couple of months now. You can probably tell by the calender setting.
Anyway, my work/recreation/study/near on everything else corner. The top image was taken two years back, and the bottom is pretty much the current configuration (minus a new external HDD and some more merch I picked up).
Two years of changing interests, amazing what it can do.
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.
If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

Very much so... probably not quite as much of an aero-geek now as I was... but there's still a great love there.

what a big change... mine hasn't change in the design. just messier now with different toys.
your new desk looks way cooler. im trying to identify your computer. is the screen turned off or you don't use a computer now? lol. i think that's the cpu at the bottom?
hey same cdrom? hehe

You've a good eye there... it is the same DVD player, got a new black one in there as well. Yeah, the screen's turned off, I had the lights in that end of the room turned off at the time to better pick up the shelf lighting and the screen kept blowing out the lighting.

That's what I noticed, too. Which ones are those?
Oh, and your room's transformation is absolutely awesome. Great makeover - wish I could do the same for my room, but the furniture's already as well arranged as it can get and I don't have the money to do anything more than that. ><

It looks like it's Akira and Athena.
And great improvement in your room, the 2008 is great.

They're the Solid Works Akira and Athena. I got lucky in that my two favorite characters are probably the easiest to still get hold of :D

nice desk, what do you use to light up the figures on the top right shelf?
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
It's Ikea Dioder LED strip lighting. Unfortunately I only had enough cash (and powerpoints) for one set. When I get paid again I might get another set and light the left shelf as well.

What are the big yellow books under your old monitor? xD

I love that desk, and the lighting on the figures as well. Very nicely done sir! I really need a desk like that.

Some change, but for the better I'd say: it all looks a lot neater ^^

You managed to get your hands on Beat/Solid Works "Aria" figures? Nice! I soo want those!
Design Student

With some difficulty yeah, now madly trying to hunt up the Alicia figure so I can have all the water faries.
That's the only problem with coming to a fandom late: all the cool merch is either really hard to find, really expensive or really both.

hahaha, I like the change ^^

sometimes i wonder how people manage to fill up an area :l
it looks less scatterbrained now.
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
Simple: you just don't put anything away or throw anything out... just move it from the chair, to the desk, to the bed and back again.

That's a huge change! Your current space looks nice and orderly now, and the black shelves give it a sophisticated touch.
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
...and they make a resonable backdrop for figure shooting as well ;P
...because I totally wasn't thinking about stuff like that when it came time to select colours

I love the blue light behind the figures, that's so nice.
My room has changed : it's messier~
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
Cheers mate. Heh, in real life the light actually appears white, but it's a very cold white so the camera picked it up as a blue :D

very impressive. When I look at those pics, I think about the fact that business must be good Danny. Congrats to you sir, everyone starts at step 1 and from there we all move on and grow. We can obviously see things are changing for the better. Again good for you Danny
Student
That is a very very nice room XD
I wish I could make my room into that ^.^

Combine your two interests and get some Strike Witches stuff.
Design Student

Probably should get around to watching some Strike Witches first ^^;
http://thetruemelody.wordpress.com/
The new one seems... darker.
Lighting problems, maybe?
Though, very impressive all the same.
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
Not really, just the top one had all the lights on and the bottom had the fluro over the desk off to bring up the shelf lighting... plus I guess it's a darker colour scheme.
That's fine by me though, I tend to prefer to work at night, in the dark anyway... late shifts and big assignements will do that to you =P

On the top shelf? It's an Avro Lancaster, in the 617 Sqn "Dambusters" configuration.

It's neatly rolled up in the top of my cupboard awaiting re-deployment at a later date =P

Looks like you got a little more organized and a little more tidy over the years, Danny.

First time I see otakuness making someone's place more organized and cool. :P

Hey, gotta display those figures nicely =P
3 years worth of uni design course, and reading too much Apartment Therapy probably had something to do with the tidyness as well though :D
Graphic Designer
Hmm, it could use a Lancia Stratos in Alitalia colors. The blue one's nice though.
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
Alitalia would be sweet, but the Blue's from eX-Driver... so I can deal with that.

Ikea to the rescue! Looks like that book on the white bottom shelf on the right hasn't moved in 2 years. =D
I really like what you did with the figure lighting; so much so that I may steal the idea. ^_^
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
Seriously, where would we be without Ikea? And you're right: the atlas probably hasn't moved for two years ^^;

Yous sir, are speaking my language! XD
Design Student

Yeah. I was fortunate enough to be in Paris for the 2001 airshow, so picked up a bunch of posters from the trade stands.
And a good language it is :D

I love the lighting on the new shelf! ^^
Student
http://anime.tedfox.com/
judging from all those books,you were obviously a studious person. my guess is, you have graduated and have more space for your figurines and that awesome lighting
you also seem to be a meticulous person when it comes to your stuff, as opposed to those heaps of homework lying around... kinda like how i treat my assignments too hurhur
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
Not so much studious as having broad interests. Books on the right are design books and help with my uni course as well as general interest. The rest are manga, novels and car stuff :D
Pretty meticulous these days, keeping the desk tidy makes working so much easier, though come the final late night rush for assignments the desk still gets littered with sketches, mind-maps, concepts and all sorts of other stuff I'm madly trying to dump into photoshop.

There are indeed. Lets face it: pinkys are pretty awesome to begin with, pinkys designed by Range doubly so...

The black desk with the blue glow touches me as bit 1337 in a way. It's cleaner and organized how I would want my space to be though I would want one huge area for drawing
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
There's actually quite a large amount of desk off to the right of the computuer. We made the top extra deep so I could get an A2 drawing pad on there :D That said, most of my drawing happens on the computer and wacom these days anyway.
At least being tidy, you don't have to clear space when you want to draw.

Me likes the nice desk. Mine is a sagging piece of wood with wobbling legs that get shorter (damn you Ikea! you've have failed me this time!)
