Im currently closing in the garage and vaulting the ceilings in the room. I would love to see what’s paint and flooring everyone picked. Planning plywood behind drywall. Ceiling will be 8’10 at lowest part. Will have lot of waterfowl and then all of our plains game from our past trip to SA,

The wife picked out the color. It’s called
Privilege green. Wasn’t sure at first but love how the mounts stand out
 
I put a trophy room addition on a couple years ago. I went with ship lap walls. I don’t recall the paint color. I decided on stained concrete floors. I’m very happy with the end results. It’s starting to fill up fast.

This is our 2 car garage closed in. We have hardwood floors and a chair rail that my wife and I did ourselves. I wish I had 9 or 10 foot walls to go along with the vaulted ceiling’s. One day I’m going to put some type of wood on the ceiling and improve the lighting.

Beautiful, and love the safe room addition. Do you remember the dimensions of your trophy room and safe room? (y)
 
As far as floors go, I really like the one in @Drillbits mancave. See page 5.

 
A few more. All this is soon to be re-arranged. I have a taxidermy shipment coming in 2 weeks from my 2022 safari. That will include buffalo, sable, lechwe, nyala, bushbuck and a couple of skulls to include baboon and oryx.

As for wall color, stay in the very light earth tone spectrum- light beige to olive. Although the grays are popular right now, they don't look good with animals on that color. Floor- stained concrete or hardwood/vinyl flooring with a natural, darker wood. Ceilings are always interesting but here the biggest deal is lighting options vs color. Lots and lots of lighting that can be controlled with dimmer switches.
 
Awesome Dik Dik.

Where do you have the little done

Erongo Taxidermy in Otavi mounted the Dik Dik. I would use them again.
