Here are the Hutch units close up (actually, the left one is Starsky) - The left hand unit is various World War Two aircraft and modern jets. Up on top is the ol' "Cannonball" O-gauge train my great-grandfather built, serving out its retirement.
These hutch units came with only three shelves each, and I "upgraded" them by adding some custom-cut glass shelves.
And hey, how about that antique "Mister Machine" toy? |
The right hand shelf is all Nazi, all the time. WWII "Luft '46" models, plus some actually-built WWII German planes. A fairly even mix of 1/72 and 1/48 (but never on the same shelf!). The middle wood shelf is all different marks of Messerschmitt-109s. Note the Dickle "Saurian Brandy" bottle on the top shelf! It's an original, but the leather is in poor shape. The train is Great-Grandpa's Scratch-built O-Gauge Camelback. |

Yeah, it's a mess. I'm a guy.
The glass shelves were donated by HiWay Hobby House as they went out of business. So I have a little piece of HHH here at home.
Again, I've gone for maximum wall coverage with room for more models. And I'm still running out of space!.
Viewed from the door: From my workbench on the right (with essential TV/DVD/Cable), the sci fi section extends to the back of the room.
On the right side of the room are the airplane models. Way in the back, under the workbench, are some extra Star Wars kits.
The view from the back of the room, looking towards the door.

The Sci-Fi section
It even extends around the back corner, by the furnace.
Up in the attic, my stash of Star Trek kits that I bought up when Ertl announced it had dropped the Trek license. Most of these are destined for kitbashing into rilly kewl new starships. Yeah, I overdid this too.
