I do appreciate flourescent tubes, but I might have to get a more ‘natural’
lighting method because the greys/bleys blend together in flourescent
lighting (at least for me anyway)

I really like the layout of the Lego room. Very well organized.
One comment on flourescent lighting... I had some Lego sets on display at
work many years ago. I decided to take them home when I noticed that the
flourescent lighting in the office had turned the outside of the white bricks
a faint yellow color. I was not a happy camper.

My 6990 monorail was set up for may years in the basement under florescent
lights. Yeah, some of the white is pretty much tan in colour now. It’s very
odd, though--some white pieces didn’t turn colour at all, whilst some went
completely tan in colour. The 2x8 plates with the tiles on top have tan/white
combos where the tiles blocked the light--I can pretty much build the 6990 today
using the original white pieces because it’s so blatantly obvious which ones are
the original white pieces.
Also, the sun’ll do it to the whites as well--leave your MOC in front of a
window for a few months and see...
I have as yet to try Retr0brite but it’s been a plan for a while. Sooner or
later I’ll do it and let you know if it reverses the UV damage.
