How do you display scenes? (1 Viewer)

[Private Ryan]

I don't know whether or not this in the right area, but how does everyone display their dioramas? Because I'm worried that the dust from the forced hot air in my house might collect on my figures and be hard to clean? I was looking at buying a shelf type thing with glass fronts that can be flipped up to view and change dio's etc. If you have tried this before let me know how it works, thanks,

I have a curio cabinet .I also have display cases I bought at Michaels'.There are differnt sizes.I very rarely leave figures outside the cabinet or cases for the same reason as you.I also don't put them near a window that gets a lot of sun as that fades them.

Thanks a lot, I'm probably gonna buy that cabinet thing, because the dust gets bad, thanks for the advice,

I have always had glass-door cabinets, and in my opinion it is the best way to go. Be sure the cabinets are not airtight - so the figures have room to breathe. Some dust will get in, but it's minimal and easily dealt with by brushing with a small paintbrush.

Ikea has some very nice and inexpensive glass cabinets. A collector friend of mine has these in his hobby room, and they look very nice.
