    Zeno,
    Excellent work and great colours. I really like the horse and colour. Before I had a curio I used to build a five sided perspex (Thin clear plastic) case to fit exactly over the base and attached it to the base with two very small brass screws. This allows you to remove the cover for shows. In the states this plastic is used to replace glass in storm screen covers for windows and doors. It did not take long to build as you could score the plastic with the back of an exacto blade and break the plastic at the score. Then cement the pieces together with liquid cement. I even did this with larger dioramas. The sheet plastic was fairly cheap and would make a lot of covers for the price. If you can put figures like this together you should not have any problems making the cover.(y)
    Just a thought as the cost is well worth not having the dust to deal with.
    Cheers

    I'm glad John, that you like it! (y)
    This is an excellent idea! Deffinitelly will work on figs like this one. The only problem is with those ones witch have items hanging over the edge of the base.
    Thanks a lot John!

    If you want to try a dome like this Zeno, give me specific dimensions and I can make one up for you. You can pick it up next time you're in the Smoke or I can ride it out when the weather breaks... London is a nice little day trip on the bike.
    We have exactly the material John is talking about at work. I used it to encase a section of shelf in my workarea so my WIP don't get dusty or smokestained between worksessions. It is relatively cheap and virtually shatterproof as well... will keep the piece clean and protected.

    Let me know
