Anyone here with kids getting Slan? How will you explain and /or work around the nudity?

I agree with supermetroid. I would hide them from her for now. I’m not one to lecture on how to raise kids but, to me, kids should not see that kinda imagery regardless of how young they are. At the same time I don’t think you should stop collecting. You said they will be displayed in a separate room, as long as they’re not all around the house you should have no problem keeping her from seeing it. A closed door is always a good solution, and if she needs to be in that room have some black cloths ready to pull over them.
The real tricky part is when she starts to ask questions. Just explain to her how she likes things for kids (My Little Pony, Frozen, etc) and you like grown-up, adult stuff that is more gross and scary, and promise she can see them when she’s much older. It’s pretty remarkable how understanding kids can be if you’re open with them.
As for Slan, as long as your spouse is okay with it, there should be no problem with your daughter, just hide it like the rest (and maybe save showing her that one for last waaaaaay down the line when you can explain context to her haha).
