Generally speaking, use resin. There are a number of commercial products that will work, commonly a two part mix of resin plus hardener. So if you wanted to view from the side, get your models in place (using clear rods or similar), then create a box around the sides using a material that the resin wont stick to, glass is best, but plasticard should work too, mix your resin, and pour, making sure you don’t get bubbles.

A quick search of youtube should throw up a few results, railway modellers and hobbyists doing things like paperweights etc should get you some hits
