what's the best ambient light source I can use for these two Batman displays?

[Alatar]

What sort of lighting can I add to these spaces to best display them? I'd like for the light to be soft incandescent versus harsh bluish LED. And ideally I'd like for it be something with a remote switch.

They show up here in the pic as much better lit than they actually appear irl.

Beyond that, eventually I'd like to make these spaces more diorama-like, with a printed photo in the background. For Tactical Suit Batman I'll use the parademon base and blaster from the other JL Batman once that arrives. For BvS Battle Damaged Armored Batman some sort of generic rubble base.

I've never added the batteries for the white eye lens and spear tip for the BvS Battle Damaged Armored Batman... Maybe those will really pop in a dark spot like this...

Anyway, I'd love to hear suggestions for how to take the display to the next level. But for lighting in particular.

Thanking you in advance!

Shop for IKEA cabinet lighting and check out either dioder or the rainbow strips!

Google white led strip lighting and remote controls. You can get led strips with DC power source and add a remote easily. It's all very cheap too.

Note get the plain white types. They are cheaper and not a mix of light as the more popular coloured types. Unless you want a disco.

White light leds are the best approximation of sunlight. Ambient yellow are just that, yellow and don't really bring out the details as much.

"Daylight White" are the LED's you're looking for, there's no blue-ish tint to them and they're not orange-y either

Mine are daylight, but I custom made these, the light shining on the poster in the middle is warm tone, I think the contrast between the two is making the shelves appear to have a blueish tint but they're not like that, solo photo attached for reference

These are the ones I use in my display. Uses a 12v adapter (sold separately) and you can buy a remote that lets you adjust the brightness.

I made the strips using these, it says unavailable but it shouldn?t be hard to find the same kind

The spotlights on the poster are from Ikea, I keep them off most of the time though because I don?t like the warm light, didn?t see a daylight option for those
