Geeky art?

[dr.girlfriend]

In honor of @ameliapond 's Princess Leia print, do you have any geeky art in your house?  I've always thought these were cool, but have nowhere to put them in our place:


There's also a Sherlock watercolor I'm really tempted to get, but I'll have to post a picture from home where I have it bookmarked.

I just took these photos to the framer this morning.  Not pop culture geeky, but still geeky. They're for my office.

Do wall scrolls count? My Dh came into the marriage with 15 Anime and gaming scrolls. I hate them, they always look cheap, I have him down to 5 now.
My Ds room is star wars, and has a few framed posters, and I have some framed Fantasy prints and a mermaid sculpture in the bathroom.

We have a "hypnotic spectre" print framed. It's a magic card. It's a big dragon. I like it.

[evans]

I have these in my front room:
     

And this in the middle:

I want some more but I'll have to make room for them.

I have the first link framed, but I haven't found a good spot to hang it yet. It was a birthday present from DH. We also have a HIMYM quote print hanging in the LR. I really want the second print to hang in the office among all our adventure (hiking, climbing, camping, beach, etc) shots. Kind of a get out and see the universe vibe. There's a "When Does the Narwhal Bacon?" print that DH really wants, but it's huge and I've no idea where we'd hang it.

Oh! And DD's room! She has a giant photo wall in her room and she has lots of kiddie geeky prints. Superheroes, Buffy, Disney, etc. The kitchen also has a print about preventing the zombie apocalypse by washing your hands and quote art print from Supernatural about the awesomeness of pie.

Wow. Typing it all out... we may have a bit much. lol. Whatever, they all make me smile.

We have some long-neck flasks on a table in our living room that we sometimes use as flower vases. We got them when my high school closed down recently and gave away its supplies. (MH is a biology teacher.)

I mentioned it several threads down, but for my birthday MH contacted Angus Oblong and got a portrait drawn of us and our pets: pandce.proboards.com/attachment/download/56492

IDK if this counts as "geeky" but I think it's funny ... in our basement we have a copy of the Heimlich maneuver poster from a local bar, where the person administering the Heimlich is Geddy Lee from Rush: beeteedee.com/Illustration/images/Choking-Victim.jpg

I'd LOVE to get my hands on the Bob's Burgers Heimlich poster from the 2012 SDCC: robotmutant.com/check-out-the-bobs-burgers-comic-con-poster/ And I'm kicking myself because we saw a print of Tina in a thrift store a few years ago but didn't buy it, and then the store closed down by the time we made it back there.

I forgot, we also had a stuffed Chief Wiggum doll sitting out at one point. I think MH won it for me at a carnival a few years ago. And we have some Christmas ornaments - a few Simpsons ornaments (including a singing Mr. Plow), a Schrute Beet Farm ornament from a friend, and the Beeker ornament where he sings Ode to Joy with the metronome.

At one point I looked into getting posters made of our WoW characters, but I'm an engineer, not a graphic designer, and I could never get them to work right.  I might look into it again - but I doubt the interface is any easier and I doubt my talent has magically improved .

I don't know if this counts as geeky, but I have this demotivator at home: www.despair.com/mediocrity.html.  I get their calendar every year and hang it in my office.  This month is a picture of a cheetah attacking a zebra and is says "Keep Calm - we'll get to the carrion part in a minute"  It makes me laugh.

We have a Bender robot floating around the house somewhere, and we had a Dalek at one point.  But I suspect that cheesy robots from thinkgeek aren't art .

[pirate]

We have a couple of Star Wars prints and one Star Trek one that we haven't put up yet, and one of Godzilla attacking the Space and Rocket Center. I love that one, I can't wait to get it framed, lol.

[BlackCanary]

I have a ton of posters. These are the only ones that are framed or hanging on the wall.

Justice League of America-


Merida from Brave-


I will add more later, I'm having issues with the others right now. 

[BlackCanary]

Here's more-

Star Wars-


Women of the DC Universe-

[dr.girlfriend]

This is the Sherlock art I'm thinking of getting. Even the small is 8x10, though, that might be too dorky even for me. :-) Maybe I'll get the set of cards and frame one on my bookshelf.

We have several steampunk prints.  These are two of them.

We moved, so none of our art is hanging at the moment. But, we have a lot of it. My H is a comic geek and an artist. So we have a lot of comic art. The biggest we have is this:

ETA: (It won't let me put the picture in. Here is a link.)


It's framed and it looks really nice. It will be hung up again, we just need to figure out where.

We also have some original art. We got this at SDCC at the CBLDF auction. It is framed and looks awesome.



We have a couple of sketches from Terry Moore (Strangers in Paradise). One of Katchoo and one of Francine. Some prints from Webcomic artists and some mini paintings from Katie Cook. We have posters from some of my H's geeky things and some from mine. There is probably more that I am forgetting. We will also purchase more, I am sure. I plan on getting prints of art that is in shows that we love. These specifically.

Not pop culture geeky, but I have a collection of antique maps that are waiting to be framed. I was going to stick them in cheap Ikea frames, but my mother guilted me about sticking 200- to 300-year-old paper in cheap frames without acid-free mapping. So now they're all tucked away in a portfolio. Silly thing is that acid-free matting will cost more than I paid for most of them.

I always wanted one of these vintage Star Wars travel posters, but I missed out.

[MeganP]

We have vintage star wars posters in the hallway before our entertainment room. DH is planning on installing some dome lights above them, so it will feel like a "real" theater, complete with the draw-back curtain we've already installed at the end of the hallway.

[Deleted]

I have the exploding TARDIS blanket! @scribellesame gave it to me for Christmas.

[UnicornDog]

I have some vintage ads. It's not gamer/pop culture geeky, but everyone who sees them thinks I am a huge nerd for having them.

Not yet, but when I have an office these are going to go in it. 




Sorry they're so huge...

I absolutely need these. The starry night one is from my fav episode!

[midnightrae]

Sorry these are so giant. Obviously Spidey likes Spider-man

[monkeybabe]

Our office has two Ghost in the Shell posters, an Appleseed poster, two posters of Neil Gaiman's Death, and an old Star Wars: Revenge of the Jedi poster.

[Pippin]

My DH and I met working at a movie theater so we have tons of giant movie posters that I will use to decorate our basement someday lol. I also have a few final fantasy wall scrolls and figurines. I really want to get a few of those posters of an entire book printed on one page. Like HP or LOTR etc.
