Took everything out and had the floors cleaned and re-polished. Just staring to put stuff back in now. I think it needs a new coat of paint.

What color for the walls. I was thinking a black starfield possibly but that might be over-do in it.

There will be a 6x4 ft workbench, computer, and TV in the room as well once I'm complete. Maybe some cabinets for storage and more display cabinets.

Hah, we had that Darth Vader collage picture too. Used to be in the living room; probably in the attic now.
Looks like you've got space for a lot more cabinets!

I would sheet rock the ceiling first before anything as nothing breeds dust like exposed floor joist spans.

If it were my room, and had THAT theme (coincidentally that's the theme of our living room) I would (and plan to) go with a two tone dark grey/light grey on the walls with white trim and chair rail to break it up.

Black walls will make the room seem smaller and also make it much darker possibly meaning you'll need to add some more lights

I might just do it with one wall

Definitely go with a drywall ceiling, I did a drop down with can lights in it and it's been nothing but dust everywhere.

It's so crazy to me, living in NY, to see people with a man cave the size of my apartment!

Looks nice. Wish I had that much space. My cave is so tiny.
