A Concept Drawing I had a most unfinished 1 car attached garage that was to become my new gameroom. First, I drew a concept picture in MS Paint to get an idea of how I wanted the room to look. This was the basic paint theme I settle on.
 Construction began with framing in a wall at the back to make a storage area for spare parts, tools and accessories.
 
I also had to enclose the well pump and water softener so a second closet had to be built.
 
I finally started to hang drywall and added a door to access the new store room. I ran new romex and added 2 breakers to put the games on a separate circuit. I added some new outlets for the games.
 
Now for the paint... I wanted it to resemble a local arcade I frequented a long time ago so I chose to cover it in flat black. Here the paint is starting to go on and the first stripe.
 Wow! This flat black paint absords just about every bit of light in the room. It will definately be dark in here. Painting and moving games as I go.
 
Robotron: 2084(still has the Gladiator glass), GTMR, and Kangaroo. On the right are my 2 double bulb light fixtures with 4' black lights leaning on the wall waiting to be hung up.
