Default Man Cave ideas..

Started my man cave process yesterday. What is a good color for the walls, one that doesn't drown out the deer? I don't like crazy colors, nor does the wife....any ideas about it will help, pics too!!

I have deer mounted on a few different color walls. This is probably my favorite color combination.

Don't have pictures here at work, but I can tell you off-white/beige doesn't show off the racks very well, and the darker brown I have on another wall hides the deer itself. Trying to decide on a new color myself.

I wouldn't normally think of orange, but that first pic seems to show how well it brings out the mount. I would certainly consider something like that now.

Its not an orange, my digital camera is on its way out. I'll see if I can't find a leftover can of paint to see what color it reall is. Its more ofa dark red.

I like white myself, it outlines the animals better I think. Its also nice to have some wood stylish finish in a outdoor room to though.

Thanks Schultzy. I'm not much of a carpenter, and it took me a good 2 months of working on it to get it done. The end product turned out good though! Its inside of my Morton building, gathering place for my pheasant hunters and throwing some parties.
