Right now i'm buying wallscrolls to fill my blank apartment walls and the question i have is would the wallscroll's color fade?(i'm thinking yes if they were near a light source but :/) And how long would they last?

thanks in advance ^_^

Do you mean just the fabric scrolls, or are posters (glossy paper) included as well?

OK. My 3 Evangelion scrolls (Misato, Misato & Misato) have not faded much over the 8+ years I've had them hanging over my bed, though not in direct sunlight.

They are dust magnets however & can crease & stain easily, so need some TLC to keep them in nice condition & hygenic. O.O

If they are in direct sunlight, they can. The comic shop I used to go to when I was younger had a Pokemon wall scroll in the window. They moved it to a different location after a while, and you could definitely tell the colors had faded.

I've had two (a Love Hina and a Onegai Twins) covering my windows for the past six years. Neither one has faded that I can tell. However, I should mention that neither gets much direct sunlight, since I live in a semi-forested neighborhood.

when you take it down you really can't notice.
