How do you display your collection?

Really look forward to see the final result and I am certain that it would be truly stunning, per usual!

P/s: thank you all for your posts, which had me revisit this thread and my old post and wow, much of my cabinet have changed during the course of last 10 months! I extended the display of 1:400 models to all levels which are available, minor changes to the zoning of each level in order to accommodate more arrivals. Welp, by now my cabinet has some free unused space, which might be filled up soon thanks to the year-end promotions!

Good collection and love the cabinets - where did they come from??

These are Coaster Furniture Curio Cabinets, I have 4 of that size and 4 smaller ones. The larger ones are now getting the 3 extra shelves too. You can find them at Amazon, Overstock and more general furniture stores
 
Finally getting my "cave" together and a way to go yet but I found my Detolf shelving units were going to be a bit troublesome due to their height and the sloping walls of the room - I didn't want them standing out from the wall so I decided to dismantle them and used the sides as shelves instead.
Dust is obviously a concern but I took the advice of you guys and got myself some purifiers. So far they have been superb and if I do have to dust at some point I'll just "play" at airports for a day 🤣👍

Here is my small collection, I primarily collects 1:400 (other scales are gifts that I received from my uncles and aunts - who worked for booking agents/ logistics company/ friends). My collection is kept fron sunlight as I have curtains in my room. However I took this picture with sunlight for better color. The shelf was a custom order of my Dad for me in early 2010s. I collected 1:400 heavily since 2018s or so (my 1:400 collection started in around 2013). I am currently running out of stands... I need to get more.View attachment 3111

Revisiting the old thread after having to reorganize my shelf made me wonder how far my collection has grown. 3 years ago I only needed half the number of shelves of my cabinet and the models are placed with lots of space. Now I have to “squeeze” in every possible inch I have. It would also be nice if you could share changes to how you display your collection.

Thank you! I'm still deciding... I thought about Fine Air. Currently I'm leaving it blank because it's useful to create virtual customs for my airport :ROFLMAO:
