So I'm looking for some ideas on how people store their miniatures and how to find them quickly. When the new place is built and I have my hobby/game room to set-up. I want to figure out a good way to store and find my miniatures that are unpainted/unassembled. What methods would you use? What types of containers? Bins? Drawers? Shelves? I think I'll hit up IKEA and pick up a few overhead cabinets for storage above my windows in the room, I'm going to make my own L-shaped desk with drawers underneath the windows and along one of the walls. I'll have a decent sized area behind where I'll be painting to be able to store figures. Really looking to get and stay VERY organized something that'd soothe my OCD and allow for me and my D&D buddies to quickly find figures for our characters and for me to find figures that will be used for display, dioramas, and vignettes. I probably have about 1500 err... 20 figures now. 99% of them are out of their blisters and inside baggies as I was storing them in drawers until I had to pack them away for the impending move. Please no commercial links (unless you PM them to me), but give me pictures or point me in the right direction. Thanks!
