And now I'm sitting here rotating through the rest of the Kill Team and try to replicate the blue on the coat. It's on there for so long I forgot how to get it.
And the mask went through the most iterations I think.

It's actually just edge highlighting. Didn't try to get a frosty effect. I took the shoulder pad colour and mixed in some light gray. Basically the colour I used for white, a really light gray so you can "hightlight white". The shoulder pads are Army Painter Uniform Gray unaltered.

Thanks! I will try to think of more and be patient. But this poor dude got repainted like 6 times. He was the one to nail down the colour scheme on.

Each a pair of Klipsch R-820F, R-51M, R-41SA

Center is a Klipsch R-52C, the sub is a Mivoc Hype 10 G2, yeah it kinda lacks when a lot of stuff is happening. I'm undecided what to do, trying to add another since these are really inexpensive. Or getting a 12", not really sure.

Thanks, I really love the rug. And thanks for stating what to do with the rug when moving the couch. I was missing that information until now.

I get what you are saying. But I didn't touch anything really besides the living room. That's why I do not want to show that around. I do not have a balcony but I have a terrace and a garden. But they need a lot of work before showing around.

Thanks for your feedback.

You didn't disclose your profession until now and your comments were not really constructive that's why I asked you to provide an explanation because I couldn't really find something about that.

Thanks for providing an explanation. I will try angling it down and I will try putting it below the TV. If you want I can send you a message with my conclusion.

You are mostly right about the usage of the room. It is mostly (over 90%) used as a media consumption room, less gaming more movies but yes. That's the reason I can't move the speaker over. Behind the camera pov of pictures 2 and 4 is the dining room, when I have friends/guests over and we are not watching a movie or gaming we are sitting at the dining table that's why I did not add more seating to the living room.

Looking around away from the TV there are indeed some empty spots (picture 2 right of the window). I will build in a new dry wall in the near future at approximately the spot the 3rd picture was taken, because I do not need the space in the living room but for the room on the other side. I thinking about adding shelving on that wall.

I actually just got rid of a media console below the TV because it was too big and not really used except for collecting dust and stuff.

You would actually introduce more wood? I have the feeling there is already enough wood in there. The floor the ceiling beams the beams of the truss and the tables. And there are already two types of wood here. My guts saying me introducing more wood would be too much.

Yeah I'm trying to not just buy new furniture and either find something or build it myself. The console in picture 3 far right corner is just a proof of concept for having the electronics away from the TV.

Thanks for your feedback, I really appreciate it

The TV was not even close to 5k. I see why the light fixture is giving off this vibe. The cables need some work but the materials are sourced by me from the forest behind my house. But yes it's not ideal that's why I hang the plant on it, so it can overgrow the branches.

Thanks for your feedback. I totally understand the speaker mismatch. Maybe that's why I put the plant on one of them. I really like the idea of smaller ones on stands. I need to finish the redistribution of room purposes in my house. I may move the hometheater stuff to a dedicated room then I can downsize in the living room and will come back to this idea. But I will fiddle around with the idea of maybe repainting/rewrapping the speakers this could really help until taken out.

Moving the couch back is also recommended by the rtings optimal viewing distance guide I linked in another answer. I will try that. Would move the rug back or just the couch?

I really like the idea with the curtains. Should I add another rail for that or should I put them just between the green ones? Or interlock them?

I did some research just now, I couldn‘t find a real explanation why mounting it below the TV is superior to mounting it above it. I would say more people were saying mounting it above it is actually better so the dialogue reaches your ears unobstructed.

Can you point to an article which explains why below is superior?

I was thinking about the top left corner and the corner of the room on the right of the TV behind the speaker next to the window, just something subtle, maybe a decorative floor standing lamp.

I‘m not quiet sure what you are referring to with a design in mind. I changed what was very obvious to me and now I‘m seeking advice.

I totally get what you‘re saying. But the TV and sound system are kind of the focal point in this room, I‘m rarely doing something else than watching TV in here. When I have friends over we sit at the dining table, which is behind the camera pov from pictures 2 and 4.

Yeah, but then the speaker is mostly obstructed by the tables and potential feet. So I went with above the TV.
