Rene, What's the purpose of your display? How do you plan to display your flies? Are they to go in front of you at your tying bench at a show? Some tiers tie multiple stages of the same fly to show the progression through the pattern. All of what you mentioned can be done, but usually an excellent tie of a fishable version is all that's required.
Then there's salmon flies. Then there's the Baits Motel.
