DIsplaying your model collection

Mine are on a set of shelves in a spare bedroom that's been converted into a den/study.

I have some big shelves in my basement living room so for now they go there till the kids can reach em then they move.

I display my models on shelves in a spare room. It makes for a lot of dusting so I have been looking at enclosed glass display units.

I'm still trying to figure out the right combination of space with models (live in an apartment). At least my wife is helping me out with a solution.

Old used aquariums, homemade plexiglass lids.
Larger aquarium displays lit with aquarium lights.
No more dusting kits.....
and now I don't have to feed the fish

I have enclosed glass display cases that I bought on the cheap from various Store closings. The models still accumulate some dust, but not nearly as much, so it's a once a year cleaning chore.

I have mine on display at a local hobby shop. Beats having to dust them.

I have one room of a two bedroom condo that I keep my collection in. About 20+ aircraft are hanging from the ceiling, and the rest are sitting on floor-to-ceiling shelves on the two walls. I keep the door closed, and during the winter, I am able to keep the place relatively dust free with a room air filter running constantly. In the summertime when I have no AC and need the window open, the dust accumulates again, and I wait till things cool again to dust them all and keep them clean again. Keeoping the door closed keeps the wife and cats out too.

I have a glas display case. It keeps my models save from kids and other visitors!
The models are not dust free in behind glas, so I dust them once a year.
A glas cabinet can be a bit of an investment, but I have spend many hours building the models so it's worth it!

I just chuck'em on top of each other to make model jambalaya...
actually,I have a shlelf to display them. a lot of dusting!

.......home made bases from plywood & wood designer trim...........then i find a company who creates the seemless clear lexan top, dimensioned to the ID of the base.........great for dios and/or just a plain display...............
good for displaying, storage or re-location.............
works great..........lasts a long time

I have to use my bedroom for displaying my models on shelves since I am only 16 the only good thing is that right now all I have are four kits in there so not much dusting rest are packed up.

I picked up these glazed bookcases for around $100.00 USD, they are perfect....

Basically, my pitiful collection (many older ones went to my son or scrap) are on a few bookcase shelves. Ouch! After all these years and time, I have only about 8 models that are worthy of display.
