That looks fantastic! One quick question though having now seen the window right next to your display; what are you doing about UV protection? You seem far too sensible and knowledgeable to ignore the fading threat posed by UV, so will you have blinds up to prevent natural light falling on your MOCs? Do you have UV film on the windows (which helps a lot, but isn't perfect)? Or have you something else up your sleeve?

I bet there is a sheild that drops down from the roof like a false wall? :lol:

:lol: Now you've got me thinking. :p

Thank you. The light doesn't actually hit that side of the wall as it's an internal wall not a wall to the outside so all good. It's always in the shade. :)

Looks fantastic! That LED lighting is really going to set off the items displayed. Good work!

Thanks apack. Lol, what false wall? Do you mean the false boxed skirting board to go on the bottom of the closed cabinet?

The one that comes out of your roof like taff said. :lol:

Ah, no changed my mind. Instead I've got the whole room on hydraulics which lowers underground to reveal another exact copy of the room on top but empty. :p :lol:

Sounds like you'll need more Mocs to fill that one too. Are you going to do all the work yourself? That might be really tiring. :lol:

UPDATE: Just fitted black frames to all units. Also fitted clear perspex for the centre piece and frosted perspex for the two slim side panels at the side of centre piece...

Now all to do is to tidy up all uneven surfaces and gaps on the unit.

To cut a long story short...

Very nice - concept to completion with arty photo shots to boot! Top job there. Commissions coming in? :lol:

Thank you Taff. Lol, someone else said that about commissions. Er no. :wink:

That looks really nice. I'm currently negotiating with SHMBO regarding shelves etc for my display. It's not going well :(
