Responsibility details are not available.
A printed paper base for a model measuring 7.3 x 7.3 centimeters with the motif of pierced steel planking, that is, the demountable taxiing surface with which field airstrips were made firm during the Second World War. The drawing is prepared for 1:144 scale. It is not a diorama kit nor a plastic board, but a flat underlay on which you stand a model for display or photography. For small aircraft in 1:144 scale it is the quickest way to get a model off a bare shelf and onto a convincing surface.
A model with no underlay looks like a sample in a display case; a model on the surface of a field airstrip looks like a scene. A paper base takes up practically no room, it can be swapped easily and, unlike a built diorama, anyone can manage it in a few minutes. It also serves well as a background for photographing finished models, because the drawing adds scale to a shot and removes the reflection of a glossy table.
We recommend backing the paper with thin card or a board of foam material, otherwise it curls at the corners. Attach it with a layer of thin glue spread evenly over the whole area, not in spots, so that the surface does not wrinkle. Trim the edges with a sharp knife along a ruler only once it has dried. The color of the print can be fine-tuned with a light hint of dust pigments or very thinly thinned paint, so that the grass between the planks stops looking flat. At the end you can spray the surface with flat clear from a can, which protects the print against abrasion and evens the gloss out with the model. Do not glue the model down for good; a drop of adhesive wax is enough.
The model and glue are not included in the package. This is a printed paper base.
