New to flat miniatures collecting, for now mainly WWI warbirds. Looking for a supplier of the nice frames you see in the images of this forum, that appear to have a slotted background and a glass front.
Looking to place some of my flat WWI warbirds in frames and display then as a picture frame.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Eduardo,
I use a homemade version of a 3D deep picture box. These are available from Amazon or a good craft shop.
You will also need foam board ( thin sheet of foam covered both sides with paper ) and some self adhesive felt / velvet.
Cut the foam board to the same size as the inside of the box. Cover it in the felt/ velvet and cut slots in it for the figures. Attach it all to the back of the box and there you have it🙂
Hope this helps
