Default modding - will it ever end?!

so as most of you know - sold the S to buy a house. Thought my modding bug would go away - i was so wrong... (house modding so much more expensive)

here are some pics of the room that Erick, & Jeff helped me rock (hence the reason i detailed Erick's car) figure another week and it will be done

the room had dark paneling on the 3 walls and the ceiling one wall had outside shakes (siding) so after drinking too much and watching the home channel one night i figured i'd strip it down to the studs







with the help of a Jeff and Erick we rocked the room







tapped the rock and sanded (for days - still think joint compond is coming out of my nose)

next comes the paint


silly me didn't check the paint can and painted the trim wall color - repained the trim)

Awesome! Did you do all that sanding yourself? Good work on the drywall.

my buddy taped it but i sanded everything-

The PC worked great as you suggested - but i think i may need to send it out to be cleaned because it just doesn't sound too good these days
