Shiny new community thread for you guys. What's on display in your hobby space? Feel free to post your shelfies and display cabinets as appropriate.

Repost from my hobby blog.

I'm trying to keep those painted minis on display. So many get tidied into boxes.

A well stocked cabinet, nice!

Sadly my own hobby shelves are more of a collection of half finished projects and towers of bitz boxes, so I can't really show them off. :lol: My finished minis all go into cases (usually to gather dust for years before seeing the tabletop).

Good idea for a thread though. We should all have pride in our finished efforts.

Brilliant! I see the good old Prussian brigade still marches proudly to liberate the fatherland. And the tzeentch Imperial sellswords. I still remember crossing swords with them.

Sadly for my figures, I’m have no display case. Rather I am all about undisplay. Everything is packed into boxes or carry cases and put into the corner of the closet to avoid being spied by my lovely, however miniature-biased, wife.

I totally agree that finished minis should go on display, at least to such a degree as you have space for. Nice cabinet, and commendably all painted. I actually do have a cabinet (plus a recessed wall shelf), but I'm that short of storage space I tend to fill my cabinet with unpainted greys :oops:

Anyway, here's my better looking display shelf:

and the cabinet of shame:

also, fwiw, the white minis in the top right corner of the nice cabinet were intended to be a warband for frostgrave. I've repurposed some of them and will paint them up as a Warcry warband in the next few weeks (see proof below!)

Nice displays guys. All my stuff is also in cases, other that the WIP stuff. Maybe I should get some cabinets?

Only having a 6-mat room for hobbying, where I also keep all my clothes and books, means all my models get packed away into cases pretty much as soon as they're finished, sadly. I'm getting jealous seeing everybody's robust display options, though - maybe some reorganizing is called for!

Great cabinets of shiny there Dave. Others feel free to post as and when. Can always do a bit of threadamancy. It doesn't have to be a massive cabinet of stuff either. Dioramas and/or display shelves of dooms are welcome.

Those Orcs are classic minis. I think I have one or two of those mono-pose Skaven kicking around myself somewhere.
